11 am – this is what was left over from last night’s storm, still around at 11, but only on the north side.

9:15 am – part of the forecast discussion:

SPOTTER REPORTS...CHP...AS WELL AS THE BODEGA BAY AND
 PT SUR PROFILERS ARE INDC A LOWERING SNOW LEVEL...DOWN TO 
2000 FEET. BASED ON SPOTTER REPORTS...HAVE ISSUED A WINTER 
WEATHER ADVISORY FOR SNOW ABOVE 2000 FEET FOR THE SAN FRANCISCO 
AND MONTEREY BAY AREA MOUNTAINS. THE ADVISORY WILL EXPIRE AT

9 am – a total of 2.0 inches of rain received yesterday and last night, bring the seasonal total to 6 inches. Check out the Big Sur River discharge rates. Quite a surge yesterday!

5 am – no snow. I checked. Lots of rain and around 3 am significant hail. Scared the dogs!

  • Good morning Kathleen! It's also Winter here in Dallas: 27 degrees with a windchill of 16 degrees (winds are 13 mph with 35 mph gusts). These cold days are very important here: Texas has a huge insect population in the Spring and Summer...the cold helps to moderate that. So I am happy for it...for now! The problem with here is: it was 74 degrees yesterday and is slated to be again in a few days. The ole body has a time adjusting to that spread of a temp change!!

    Thanks for keeping the running dialog about the coast there and what's going on. I truly miss being there, so all news I can read is great!

    You rock lady!!
