Wow! Five degrees warmer? No wonder my heat pump ran less than half as much as last November!

Dear X-Air, Steve, Blick, and WeatherCat climate watchers,

Better late than never, here is the December climate report from Northern California with the usual plug for Grand's WeatherCatRCP:



The temperature remained essentially normal, but the precipitation and wind sadly followed the trend for this season.  We are only at 28% of normal rainfall thus-far.  Definitely looking like another nasty year of drought and wild fires.

Oh well, . . . .Edouard

From the far western edge of the Uinta Mountain Range in northern Utah we set the new local record for wind run ...

Dear X-Air, Steve, Blick, and WeatherCat climate watchers,

Here is the Northern California report with the usual plug for WeatherCatRCP:



Curious that everyone is thus far reporting drier than normal when January was supposed to be above average precipitation for much of the country.  As to wind, my station sides with Blick's.  Indeed, we set another wind speed record this month:

New wind speed record for Canebas Weather Station! Previous high was 32.0MPH on 2019-10-27 12:06:00 -0700. New high is 33.0MPH

WeatherCat TimeStamp: 02:33:42 19-Jan-21

The previous record was set during the last Public Safety Power Shutoff of 2019.  No power outages this time, but so much pine needles and other debris was blown about that it has taken me 2 green can loads to get rid of it all!

Interesting weather times we live in . . . . . . .

I'm beginning to suspect my anemometer needs some grease...

Dear X-Air and WeatherCat faithful,

Well, here goes try #2:



Sadly, the trend this winter continues: hotter, drier, and windier.  We are at only 40% of normal rainfall for the year and March isn't looking much more promising at the moment.

Oh well, . . . Edouard

From the far western edge of the Uinta Mountain Range in northern Utah we had more snow that any previous month this water year, but we are still in extreme drought.
