Bad Prediction
Jennifer says most of the persimmon seeds are spoons this year. That's a bad sign. We'd been wondering if the unusually hyper-frantic activity of the squirrels & chipmunks was due to this year's sparse nut crop or a portent of a bad winter. Looks like it may be both.
Plus, there was sleet in Rogers the other morning....the earliest I've ever known since we moved here. Sure, it snowed on Halloween back in '96 or '97, but that was abnormal. That was hell on the trick or treaters too, snow, high winds, wind chills down in the teens. Brrrr!
Time to start stocking up the cupboards.

based on the fact that we've had as much rain in 48hrs as we normally do in a whole season here in San Diego, I'd say El Nino has arrived.
