VETERANS' DAY: The weather is beginning to look on the wet side for
Veterans' Day Thursday. By tomorrow we will be able to pin down the time
window when we think the chance of rain is at its greatest. At this time, we
believe the best chance will be during the afternoon and night. However,
there may also be some rain during the morning hours. Leftover light rain
should end early Friday and that's when you will feel the new season more
than ever. High temperatures on Friday will only be in the upper 50s as
compared to the mid 60s on Veterans' Day. Meanwhile, look for another mostly
sunny day tomorrow with highs around 65.

WEEKEND WEATHER: It looks great if you don't mind some chilly temperatures.
Look for mostly sunny Saturday and Sunday with highs near 60 on Saturday and
a few degrees warmer on Sunday. Lows will be in the 30s. We think now that
an easterly wind will be strong enough to keep us from having a Saturday
morning freeze. However, there could be some pockets of frost in the well
protected valleys.

NORTHERN LIGHTS: A moderate geomagnetic storm is in progress following the
arrival of a CME at about 3:30 this morning. The ongoing storm is mild
compared to the extreme one just two days ago when auroras were visible as
far south as Alabama and California.

FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH: At times when I sit here and stare into my computer
screen and wondering who is on the other side making faces at me, my little
mind wanders afar. Today I was wondering if we could pump all the water out
of the Gulf of Mexico and spread it evenly over the USA how deep would it
be. I have no idea, but I know we would all drown. Bodies of water contain a
whole lot more water than we think. It has been estimated that if all of
Lake Tahoe could be drained, that water would cover all of California to a
depth of more than one foot.

WEATHER NOTEBOOK: 86 in Laredo and McAllen, Texas was the hottest
yesterday...this morning it was 12 in Fryeburg and Sanford, Maine...in
Alaska, it was a very cold 35 below at Chandalar Lake and Arctic
Village...it was 30 below in good old Deadhorse.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: Every time I go from my weather office to the
kitchen to get another cup of Maxwell House, I have to walk behind the
couch. Little Miss Molly hears my chair squeak when I get up and she will
immediately jump on the back of the couch expecting a 30-second love session
when I go by. Of course, I oblige. She and I went out late last night hoping
to see the northern lights. No luck. Then we had one of the most vigorous
and long lasting play sessions of her lifetime. I took some of her toys and
we both got on the king-sized bed. It turned into a boxing ring, wrestling
pad and play pen all in one. For 30 minutes we romped. She would go to the
foot of the bed and then charge me like a rhino, grab my wrist in her teeth
but not enough to hurt. After 30 minutes, I said, Time to go night-night,
Molly." She immediately turned around six times, plopped down and was asleep
in 30 seconds. Just another ending to my day in Our Tiny Corner of the
World. We love it.
