i didn't even think there were chances of rain back in the forecast for today, but i did look before i went outside to putter around for a while. some clouds looked like they may drip and i wasn't too enthusiastic about what i was doing so that was enough for me.

We had lots of gusty wind and rain today. I did manage to carve a quick pumpkin. We listened to spooky stories while watching the pumpkin glow!
Happy Halloween!

it looks like two days on for garden chores and then a day or two off for rain which is fine with me as it gives me time to rest up, recover and shell out some beans to be ready for the next round.

A bright, sunny morning — the sun showing up an hour earlier made it more so .

Starting out, I accomplished what I had hoped for by staying on the horizontal in bed for 8 hours. Most nights recently, that has not been the case. Yes, I realize that the sun will disappear below the western horizon earlier but being up at 2:30 and realizing that there will be 4+ more hours of darkness is not the best way to start the day. I look forward to knowing that the sun will be highest in the sky with the shortest shadows for the day, and lined up due south at 12 noon .

The wind is picking up and will blow the last of the frost away. There is a slight chance of snow falling at sunrise, tomorrow. Not worrying about that .

39F degrees here this morning. Might not mean much to a lot of y'all, but to me, that is cold! The sun is out and it will warm up but for me, winter is here!

Looking back on the compiled monthly reports from the Weather Service ...

October isn't really a part of the growing season but for cool-season crops, about half of the month could be considered so this year. The rainfall was considerably above average with 2¼ inches while the October average is about 1⅓". A relief from the previous 4 months.

September was about average but coming close to ½ inch over the 30 days can't be said to have amounted to much. However, compare the previous 3 months of June, July and August: .13", .07", & and .06" . That really amounts to Nothing. Zero.

Temperatures were above normal throughout all of these months and quite a bit in September. Thankfully, we didn't have any blistering hot days.

The rainy season has started. And another wind storm is coming. I just finished cleaning up after the last one. Bah Hum Bug…
