Fifties during the day today are okay. As long as the prediction for Friday remains at 65 degrees (for Halloween), I am happy. Next Saturday, (teach a friend to homebrew day) looks decent too. |

It's still nice and seasonal here by the lake. The wind is high - they say the temp is going to drop drastically as the day progresses. So far it isn't too bad out there.

I know it's not too out of the ordinary but still made me go "wtf..." was when I had to bust out the Arctic Tundra gear and there was not a trace of sunlight when I left for the airport. Also was downright blustery so add those cold temps and the face got numb prettttty quickly.
Accordingly, my beer collection has slowly transformed from the bright ambers of summer, to the darker shades of autumn and finally will be transitioning into the deep stouts of winter. Just because it gets dark and cold doesn't mean there is NOTHING to look forward to

This fk'n weather blows! My yard is a disaster.
I don't care so much about the cold but this rain crap needs to go.
I just need 1 or 2 more half way decent days to get my outside winterizing done. Otherwise it will be a messy spring.  |

Been dripping all day. Supposed to hit 54 tomorrow. Not so bad, really considering it's November.
Of course saying it's not so bad and it's November is an oxymoron.
