Tropical storm in Newfoundland, Martime provinces, Magedeleine Islands (Qc) and part of the Gaspesian peninsula in Quebec (Chandler area, to be more precise).

Lots of damages reported, 2 women swept away by the waves in Newfoundland. :(

Edit: one of the women was rescued.  Both of them were in basements.
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

90 degrees F (30 C) and the hurricane is coming; it's fall in Florida.
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

Was 27C here yesterday afternoon, a little cooler today, but still a lot warmer than a fall day in Vancouver should be.

We've been advised to "Hunker down" (the official meteorological term) by noon today, as we're expected to get 2" (5 cm) of rain between 1 and 2 from Ian.  Fortunately it's only supposed to be a tropical storm when it gets here (and the peak winds won't arrive until later, right now they're predicted to be around 6 PM.)

We didn't even lose power; which is almost miraculous in this part of Florida.  (We did lose cable.)  Our only issues were we had some downed palm fronds and we lost our carp wind sock.

Tampa was supposed to get storm surges, but instead the bay drained out for quite a way.  Naturally people ran out to take selfies on the bay floor, during a hurricane warning.

Continued late summer warm days with no rain, for at least another week.

In October, in a temperate rainforest.

Summer has now come to an end. It's raining!  For the first time in 22 days.  And the temperature has dropped.

It will be a bit of a shock for the bees that were collecting pollen from our late summer flowers yesterday.

Here we're enjoying successive days of rain, very mild, many things have started growing again, including daisy and dandilions in the pleasantly green grass.  :bowler:

Someone offered me free CFL Eskimos tickets for tonight.  I said "Sure!" without thinking as it has been so warm.

It's supposed to be +5c by kickoff, dropping down to +2c.  Brr.

Yes - the Elks want to get this stupid "no wins at home since 2019" monkey off their back so it's not a talking point during the off-season.

Besides - whomever comes out of the West semi-final is just going to be a speed bump for Big Blue anyways. :cool:

Hurricane Nicole looks like it's heading right at us.   :(

It looks like it will go further south now; but the storm is so large that we're already getting wind and rain.

Seriously mild here these last few weeks and properly rainy weather too; everything seems to have started growing again.

The most on the extension roof, which the window here overlooks has the most gloriously green moss clumps on it, so much so you couldn't get a believable/accurate photo of it, the green is that Hockneyesque.
