Whats your weather right now?

Hooray - weather continues mild and dry. Since one cold snap last month, there was some heavy rain, washed salt from the roads, and now we're stuck at dry & mild with 10/10's cloud for the past several days and hopefully at least a few days more to come.
I've been told people are fed up with this unseasonal weather pattern but excuse me, the roads are dry and clean and that'll do for me.
Bullet sat sitting on the bike lift, Miss November also waiting for attention, but W800, Polly Perkins to her friends, is out and about every day. Odo reading when we parked up in Galashiels t'other day was precisely 37,000.
Gotta make the most of it . . .

33c today. A bit hot for me to be working
Very unseasonably warm in Montreal today; 21 * C / 70 * F with warm blustery winds and and scattered clouds. Would be a lovely day for a ride but other priorities rule the day !
!
Apparently Washington is having unseasonably hot weather right now, is that the Trump effect?
It's been ..dry here for a month 80's day 60's night, however my road into town was under water until after noon . Don't know how how much rain but I have two rain gauges and one was full and the other was half full. ..
8 C in SW Ontario at 8:20
Unseasonably warm for November 8th.
It's been "Lose yer jacket" weather.
Up early with a bit of chill in the air and I go out with a jacket on.
As the sun comes on and warms the late morning the jacket is removed and set aside.
When the sun starts to set and the chill begins creeping back in I'm trying to remember where I left my jacket.......

The 10/10's cloud cover and mild, dry weather continues.
Typical Borders road - dry stane walling, sheep.
But the Met Office says there's a change on the way.

Today we have a change. It's a glorious day, bright Sun, clear sky. Much cooler than recently. This morning, out on the W800 and very pleased to note that the Cooncil has still not spread salt.
But with clear skies tonight, there is a good chance of frost, which means a good chance the gritters will be out later today.

This is why I vow to stay south of parallel 35.

Because of the woodpeckers??? (BTW, I live just south of 70N
)
We have woodpeckers. That’s why my house is made entirely of materials uninteresting to woodpeckers. My previous home suffered some serious woodpecker damage, some of it structural. They’re amazing critters that I expect could take a house down if they had a mind to.Because of the woodpeckers??? (BTW, I live just south of 70N
Why don’t woodpeckers get brain damage?

Awesome warm up today in the Baltimore/Washington area today.
Took the day off too.
Windy but sunny. Winds died down later in the day.
Although I spend much of the day working on the XS, I did ride the Bonneville out to my RC airplane field to see old friends during their Vet day celebration.
I did some exhaust repair on the BMW R1100RT then took it out 30 mins for highway ride to test it out.

Just put on my windshield to extend my season a bit. Good day to take the long way to the gas station.
It happened. Rides will be less frequent, but I'll still try to get out and about. On the W800. The alternative is borrow Mrs' car . . .
