Morning sun coming soon
November 29, still 2020. The pandemic is back with its anticipated fall/winter vengeance. Hospitals nationally reaching over capacity with too little staff as well. Record cases reported every day now. Nearing record highs in deaths, surpassing this last spring’s daily numbers of 2,500 plus. Mostly low 60’s for daytime highs and mid/high 30’s for nighttime lows. Last two weeks and forecasted for next week. & Much too dry. November rainfall, also for the season, less than 1”. Grapes did look good, but similar maybe a little more quantity by vine. Regional forest fires in every direction, within 40 miles or so, smoked us out for days. API over 1000, 1600 even, during two 3 day stretches. Very unhealthy breathing. We quickly obtained large indoor air filters. And we quickly had central a/c installed. New neighbors to our north. A landscaper and family. First two weeks spent cutting down eucalyptus trees. Hopefully this will continue to our ESE giving the grapes in part
