la Nina rears her ugly head

It's pretty unusual to see two so closely spaced. Somebody could get a double or triple whammy.

I'd be happy if one went north a bit and spun off some moisture. Not a drop here since May, and strangely below normal temps for the past month. I guess I shouldn't complain when it's too hot everywhere else, but I sort of miss summer.
 
It's been just nice in the low 90s, but expected to warm up by the weekend. :oops:

I'm still waiting for the first drop of rain since May. Things are really dried out and not surprising there are so many fires. This summer has been unusually cool compared to normal. Not complaining, but I think there was only one or two days where it reached 90F.

Fall weather has arrived, that means leaves will soon be filling the lawn. :x
 
The first slight chance of showers in my forecast since last spring.

Also:
The extended forecast is quite interesting. Will be watching
Tropical Storm Rosa which is currently getting itself organized
way down in the tropics west of Central America. Latest forecasts
bring the feature northward to west of Baja California as a
hurricane by later Sunday/Monday. Meanwhile a longwave trough will
be developing off the California coast. Models are struggling
with the interaction of this trough and the tropical system
forecast to approach northern Baja. We`ve seen some pretty drastic
run to run variations for the last few days and the euro/gfs are
at odds with each other. There are scenarios where the mid-latitude
trough by-passes us and moves onshore over Socal while interacting
with Rosa while other scenarios suggest the potential for some
early season soaking rains over Norcal by early next week.

We might be getting some rain from this one. We really need it with nothing all summer. Everything is dusty and dirty. :x

Only 1/4” to 1/2” here though, could be more or less with the center of the tropical system passing around 200 miles from here.
Phoenix directly in the path. :shock:
