NOON: A day for fires in wood stoves, soup on the kitchen stove, cornbread in the oven, and dogs or cats curled up near or on one. A good book, a journal, or art supplies at one’s fingertips is a plus. Winter is but a month away and, for me, it is a time for introspection, solitude, and quiet.

Rio Road Carmel, no totals but an off and on drizzle since 9:30 am. Again a good drink for the forests.

Quite a bit of wet stuff happening here north of the border... even occasional gully-washers and hail every now and then. Sorry, no measurements. I covet your fancy equipment. :)
We got 4/10 of an old inch at the Garrapata Trout Farm.
We're just north of Palo Colorado.
I got a total of .31", although NOAA, Monterey, reported that Big Sur recorded .67"! So, somewhere between me and thee, Ken, they lucked out!
