Storm coming

Storm looked bad earlier --- but looking milder as approaches --- still winds 55 knots predicted

January 3^rd

But still packing lots of precipitation
Let’s hope as RAIN and not snow

Seasons above average across Canada – Source	Been warm most last decade
	The scale is all Canada – but still interesting – note the arrows were El Nino years in 2005 and 1997-8

		Source for these images – and ‘reports’ NY Times Drought feared for 3^rd year in California as La Nina returns—thus hoping for stormy weather
		Here on the coast we have ‘escaped’ the real warming during ‘winter’ Dec-Feb as had La Nina offshore into spring 2008 But NOAA says we still have La Nina conditions for 2^nd straight year (see NY Times above or links here) to NOAA

	Precipitation departures from normal map, Autumn 2008
	Was a ‘dry’ autumn in 2008
