‘She told me the seasons were changing. The sun was shining but it was not hot. I could feel a sense of irritability in the air. Breezy, calm, breezy, no one noticed, and no one cared, at least not this day. Perhaps when one thinks about yet another change to endure, the water down the drain, or maybe the days gone by, they will fret. It will turn cold; it will rain or maybe snow. Residing indoors hovering near a warm cavern of sorts will be utmost. Watch through your window, it will come, the night will last. She told me the seasons were changing. I told her, yeah, I know.”
The above is a tidbit I wrote one fall to reflect on the changing of the seasons and is one of my musings on my website. And so it goes in autumn, you can feel the change in the air, sometimes the weather acts confused as to which way to proceed. I can tell you the atmosphere will indeed have some irritability the next several days such as the weather system bringing sprinkles instead of a predicted soaking on Tuesday.
Another weather system goes by to our north late Sunday and Monday, but I doubt we get little or anything measurable. The next week or so I don’t see any soaking rain heading our way although it will be close by streaming through southern Canada. Vancouver only received 0.01 of an inch of rain Tuesday while most Clark County rain gauges had nothing measurable. The bulk of the rain went south off the coast into Southern Oregon and California where they really need it.
I expect partly sunny skies in the afternoons and highs in the 70-to-75-degree range the next several days. Get your outdoor chores done that require dry weather. A few forecast models push us into the 80s next week. I won’t hold my breath.
