Last night was wet. One and half inches so far; far exceeding forecasts. Yesterday I saw the GFS bump up the 9PM to 9AM rainfall amounts to almost this range, and thought we might get hit. Decided not to post, as I was tired last night. Well, we ended up with the top end of that range. The same GFS run suggest that rain backs off abruptly at 9AM, with only a tenth of an inch expected in the next 12 hour period. Storm is supposed to shift east. It is also really warm out there this morning, with the temp currently 57.4F on Western Ave. That is about the high temp forecasted for today. So wet morning, and less wet by noon. Showery weather should stick around into the night, so not dry and sunny. NOAA still forecasting up to an additional 3/4 of an inch of rain by Sunday afternoon. We might get that much, but I'm expecting the majority of it hitting before noon today.

| Cold Smoke at Kirkwood. February, 2018. |
Gonna be a short post, as I need to get on with the day. A break in the weather on Monday, followed by more rain middle of next week. At least we got one day of clean, moderate plus, long period swell on Friday. That was a nice break. Been hard getting in the water this past month, but the snow has been stellar. Now with the warmer air, we are back to the more typical Sierra Cement set up. But the mountains are stacked for spring, and we might be lucky enough to end this cycle with some cold storms, as the regions troughs and highs move around.
