Leaves, leaves, leaves

 

The Pacific Northwest "bomb cyclone" got quite a bit of press this week. The powerful storm bypassed Western Washington and stayed well out to sea. However, there is a potential for another one on Sunday and Monday. 

The jet stream is super charged, which I think means moving much faster than usual. It's very unusual to have two bomb cyclones in one month, let alone one week.  Hopefully it tracks north or we'll have a damaging wind storm in Seattle.

The leaves seem to be coming down all at once this year.  It's sad seeing the trees bare and the soggy mess on the sidewalks, but for a few days it's like walking on a gold carpet. I felt a twinge of guilt for not raking maple leaves across the street, then I thought, naw.

Today is National Nut Day. Eat some or maybe just do something nutty.  Have a good weekend.
