Storms

I forgot to mention, it snowed earlier this week.  My location was right in the weather convergence zone that affects our region – so 5 miles north or 5 miles south of my home, the weather was absolutely fine.  Where I was, we had hail, thunder and some snow overnight.  Not enough to settle on the roads – but still, ominous sign for the winter ahead.  Currently, things are a bit more interesting further south on the West Coast:

That storm is going to slam into the Oregon/California border and cause havoc over Thanksgiving (100 mph winds - yikes).  On top of all the bad weather across the rest of the US, unfortunate timing for the busiest travel days of the year.  It is just going to be a cold Thanksgiving for me.
