We're back up in the 70s today. Feels good.

Wonderful fall weather in Houston today. Rain for the rest of the week is the forecast in the Texas Gulf region. Up to 4 inches with possible flooding.

I like that one! What you are gaining I am losing our roads are clearing up very nicely all the snowbirds who summer up here are heading out great time of year to drive the S up here.

When the license plates turn colors, my income quadruples, my roads plug up and you can't go out to dinner until after 7:00. 7:00 is when the dinner specials end and they all go home to watch Wheel of Fortune.

I also park my S2000 and my motorcycle and they don't come out to play until they leaf(pun)

I have a small window of open roads from now until ski season starts (unless the salt trucks go out) Once ski season starts we go from Floridians to the New York/ New Jersey crowd and I don't go out on the road much then as I'm afraid of getting run over in my little S by an Escalade, Yukon or Cayenne.

Have y'all seen Hurricane Patricia??? A level 5 - the strongest hurricane ever recorded! Seems it will hit Mexico today at least as a 4. Looks very bad. Then it's going to go right over TX with lots of rain this weekend. Good luck down there!

As for us, nothing like that. Maybe a bit of rain on Sun AM for the Marine Corps Marathon, but mostly nice weekend with temps in the 60s.

^ OT...the +1 is thinking of taking his team to VT to run a race there next June. I have to see which one it is.

Edit - Looks like the Green Mountain Relay:
