Good Morning!!!! 49F @ 5:30AM. Rain likely. High near 55F. Winds light and variable. Chance of rain 90%. Rainfall around a quarter of an inch.
Light rain all day and night added up to an inch and a half yesterday, and with what's come down since midnight, we're closing in on three inches since the Atmospheric River took us for a ride.
I didn't know that swans were actively contributing to Global Warming, Eric.
Sorry the storm disappointed, L4N, but it sounds like several others here would be more than happy to forward their snow to you if you ask nicely...:confused2:
I'm sure you're not the first person to string a Xmas light string backwards, Don. Last time I did it, I managed to find an extension cord long enough to save face.
Maybe if you left some warm milk out for Booboo, Thomas, he'd get drowsy enough to start his hibernation?:laughing:
Yesterday turned into one of catching up on electronic maintenance, and a last minute surprise. I unboxed the replacement DVR and found a fairly well done booklet on migrating recordings and settings from the old one to the new, but it wasn't working out so well. Got on the phone to tech support that got me fixed up with an undocumented procedure to move over my timers using the memory in the hand held remote, but I've had to copy recordings from the backup external HD in small groups or the machine reports a failed attempt. I also ran into an issue with one of the "smart" wall switches, that now seems to be in permanent hibernation even though it still has power. This one controls the blower on the wood stove, which proceeded to run all night on a stove that is only now cold enough for the thermostatic switch to shut off the blower motor.
Then around 6PM I got an email from the solar guy with a list of equipment and labor activities, which he called a scope document, and on which I found several small errors. But there was enough info there to allow me to update the documents needed for the building permit application, and with a little luck I'll get the changes made and submitted this morning. Not much chance getting the work done by year's end, but he says I'll still qualify for the Federal tax rebate this year.
Hope everyone's week and month gets off to a great start, and those dealing with winter weather take it easy!
