Weather where you are?

Just got up and it is -5 here. It has been a wet year so far ..... almost no forest fires across most of Canada until late in the season and they were blown out of proportion by the media (the six o'clock news needs drama).

Long range forecast is more cold and dreary weather ....... I think I'll be putting the snowblower on the tractor soon.

Red flag warning in Sonoma in Northern California due to high temps and winds. Power cut off for a few days. Many fires this year. I heard on the radio yesterday that 9,000 firefighters are currently deployed in CA working 20 fires. Many thanks to each and every one of them and the thousands more who are not out there at the moment and all the folk in the background who support them. ALEX
 
Don't know how many folks on here get news about the fires in northern California. Lots of wineries are toast along with 1800 or so homes. Worst fire on record. A million acres burned. San Francisco air quality measured worst in the world on several days. Smoke went clear across the continent, past New York, over the Atlantic... to Europe! Fires are still not out after a month.
 
The California fires have been reported in the Australian media but not for a while now, other events around the world seem to have become more newsworthy.
 
That's very concerning. We (in Oz) are about to enter our danger season. Worst fires on record here 10 months ago, now the same in Ca - but climate change is a figment of the socialist left  :o :-\
 
He cannot last much longer, he is in his 80s, hopefully, his son isn't as big an arsehole as he 100% is but I have my doubts about that. One guess who. At least one of his sons appears to have a brain.
 
If you want to watch something uplifting, watch my teacher octopus. Netflix.
Im sure most have seen it but if you haven't it is gold.
In regard to Murdoch, the old guard will die out, one way or the other.
Wether that helps or not is yet to be seen.

 
Oct 17th here on the North Shore: Rather a cool fall (Between low as 5C at night and 16c day).Leaves have turned and on there last fall, beautiful colours. Looking for a week of Indian Summer before the snow.

I remember swimming in the Kiosk River in early November around 1974 with a friend. 2 canoes intercepted us that Indian Summer, 4 Girls paddling. I was caught naked and my friend George was a 160lb Bear Cub ;o)

Lake Huron is the highest water level I've recalled  - I'm certain there will be a lot of low land swamp, nature breeding habitat and shoreline destruction come spring.

4 millions acres so far this fire season in California. Seems like all under control for now, but it is the calm before the next storm....

4 million acres is sometimes just one fire in Canada ....... but thankfully we don't have as much population. This year was a dead year ...... rain, rain, rain!
