We got almost a quarter inch of rain in one storm, plus a bit more in a few others, on Sunday. Then it cleared up for the afternoon/evening/night, and stayed that way. Got down to 38F (45F predicted) just before dawn, and stayed colder than expected today (62F highest in my area, 67F predicted). Warmer in teh sun of course, but not much.
Got cold fast as the sun got near setting, too, and I wound up having to come up with a heater and light ot keep working on the trike; a 1000w halogen work light used only a couple feet away from me.
Worked better than expected, but I wish I could bring the trike into the house to work on small bits like wiring...it's just too wide to go thru the door now though.

Low tonight forecast to be 28°F, Was 34°F last night, not the kind of temps we're used to having lived on the coast for all those years. 
In a couple of days we're looking at a highs of 75°F and lows of 42°F, the warm breeze during the daytime fills the house so no heater needed at night.

Froze hard here last night too, but no rain in sight. Way, way behind where I was last year for rainfall. They're going to be talking about drought again pretty soon.
First freezing of the season last night, below 30F by dawn. A little ice in the dogs' water bowl outside, but melted before midday. (it's about 53F right now).
No ice in the dogs' "pool" yet, which will be retired for the winter now, back in use when it starts getting 80F outside again and Yogi needs to cool his toes off.

Getting very cold, 20F daytime with no snow cover. That can mean frozen water lines form the street.
40F and dropping when I got home from work around 11pm tonight. Was 38F a bit ago when I went out to make sure i'd plugged in the warmer lamp under the trike. (almost 60F inside the shed, because I *had* remembered).

Highs in the 70s and 80s this week, lows in the 40s. Sorry folks.
Any chances of rain removed from the forecast now. Zero for December, normally one of our wettest months.

Finland. Helsinki. Not a single drop of snow on the ground. Everything black.
Zero minutes of sunshine in december. Sky is black and the ground is black 24/7.
In mid-january we haven't had a single minute of sunshine in two months. Next week we should get some, they forecasted.
Do you ever think how it feels to live two months without a single minute of sunshine? That's your welfare state for you.
