They said we might get up to an inch and half of rain. I figured that was pretty generous but I've already got a quarter of an inch since the rain started and its still coming down pretty good.

1.4 inches of rain. Not bad for the first real storm of the season.

 

[Vic Harder]

that's a lot of rain. 20*F here at the moment.

Closest official measuring station said 1.2". I'm usually under the official measurement. Still sprinkling.

Looks similar to Hillsboro here on the “wet” side.
Have you “dry” side residents finally paid your fall precipitation bill?

Got your water wings and pool noodles handy? Per Oregon Live, all y’all are getting an atmospheric river tonight. On the good side, the suburban commandos aren’t going to attack your candy bowl in full force.

Turn out the lights and lock the door that will keep them away.

When the clouds show up, yell BOO! and send them south to us! We're not supposed to get it until Wednesday. Or so they say. It seems that in the past year or so NOAA and TV weathermen/women tell lies and give empty promises.

Fall has just about hit its peak in terms of color here in north central Idaho. If anyone is in the neighborhood, the larch up the Lochsa and South Fork Clearwater rivers would still make for a nice fall drive for another week or so.

Here's a few scenes from the neighborhood over the past few weeks (in the post link and below): Fall in the Idaho Woods – Occidentalist

The larch (tamarack), cottonwood, and and aspen are also putting on a show here. Today the sun was behind the mountain at 3:00, but it was beginning tonight get light around 5:00 AM. It’s a beautiful time of year.

Nice color in your pictures.

Yes, the big time adjustment. We had sun until about 4 here, you are sitting in the shadow of those Elkhorns. That must mean sunsets around 2 in December.

Aspen in the mountains past peak and bare here. In the valley floor and at my house (ele. 4,345'), some cottonwoods, globe willows and others at peak, most are past peak and some bare.
