Feeble plumes fight back the cold

 

This is not good for western rain.  That only comes when a Gulf plume zooms up the middle and hits an Arctic cold blob.  The Pacific plume has been cut off, but still fights the big cold blob coming down.  This will hit us in a week.

At the cottage, my reputation continues to be in tatters, as we get big rain fronts approaching, and then get turned down to Toronto.  

The weather people are preparing for the cold by trotting out a 'Flash La Nina', which will hit us if it is cold.
