52°, rain, lots of wind There is another cyclone causing issues again at the coast. This time my area is feeling a bit more wind than the last one and places like San Francisco is seeing some weather it normally doesn’t.

Still air and clear skies-
Clear, frosty (probably mid 20’s) A picture from early in the year. These are a sign of a cold night here. And it was indeed a cold night again.
