No need to mention that it will be stormy again Tuesday and Wednesday, with strong winds and rain heavy at times. There has been enough weather news in the headlines to publicize that. We get a brief break late Wednesday and then another storm on Thanksgiving with lower snow levels and then perhaps more rain and windy conditions over the weekend.
I mentioned here last week that the La Niña Express has finally left the station and it is on a fast track to parts unknown. Tuesday will have very strong winds along the coast, and a wind advisory was issued locally for winds to 40 mph. There go the rest of the leaves, maybe. Might as well wait for a break to clean up your yard, though it’s a good idea to keep the storm drains open.
Many residents took advantage of Saturday’s short break in the weather and put up their outdoor holiday lighting. Then, under the gloomy skies, a few illuminated the neighborhoods a bit early — but oh, well.
