45 F and gloomy. It isn't supposed to rain until next week.

But Island living... you can never be 100% sure on anything the weatherman says.

It's Arizona Highways weather, drove up to Flagstaff to see Fall color.  It was windy and the air was crisp.  This is where everyone goes, on the way to Snow Bowl.

Took the loop through Harts Prairie, almost nobody here.  Thick frost on the trees under the cloud on the Peaks.

On the way home, explored an area that still looks parched, despite having good rain, evidence is tracks in the dried mud.  I drove up the the cell tower.  It was 63ºF.

Usually first thing in the morning there are no clouds, they build up the most around Noon, then dissipate in the afternoon.

Just boring clear sky, no wind to speak of, t-shirt weather.  No clouds this way.

Or that way.

Found some Fall color, but nothing like CO.

It was chilly this morning, but not enough to turn on the heat.  Some forecasts say it will be stormy this Winter.

Had to look it up. Lovely, some of my favorite weather. Must be my Scottish roots showing.  :)

Because the mornings are chilly, and it's that time of year, took down the sunscreens from the sunroom skylights.  Living on the edge. ⬇️  Still boring clear sky, but something is coming.

Back to weather, unpredictable by phone, the radio guy called for a chance of rain.

A quick shower, the sleet lasted only half a minute.

Second rainbow that I took a picture, the third one arced below the horizon (no pic), which was around Noon.

Had a friend/contractor beg me to draw plans, not even for them. 🙄  Just a Plot Plan, yes.  On the return, explored what was down a dirt road, there is a ranch at the end, and I didn't see any signs but turned around.  If I lived out here, would *have to* own a Rally race car for a daily driver. 😏

That's the northeast for you, I'm up in Albany. Bipolar weather this time of year. Two days ago we had 3 seasons in the same day.

Sunday's forecast is for rain of burning frogs mixed with brimstone hail, but hey...at least I'll be able to sleep an hour later.

NWS got the forecast pretty well right today. 

Said the rain would be after 4:00 PM, though there was precip showing on live radar...which must have been virga.

Actual sprinklege started a few minutes ago as I was getting most of the leaves out of the back gutters, on the part of the roof I recently tarped.

Looks like heavyish rain in Birmingham right now, coming this way.

Good day to stay in and watch an old movie, maybe even work on a model...
