Quite a bit warmer this a.m., clouds lingering on the edge of a Pineapple Express that targeted Northern California. It’s supposed to cool in the week ahead, no indication of rain until the end of the month. With spotty germination in places and no cover on the south and west slopes, the grass is slow coming and needs another shot of moisture now. Branded at Tony Rabb’s Thursday, Jody Fuller’s yesterday and up to Mankins Flat to brand Craig Ainley’s calves this morning. Wearing down and gaining weight with the pastries, still feeding cows.

Several prognosticators are suggesting a change in our high-pressure dominated weather pattern around the 20th of this month with several rains to follow that will initially favor northern California. Some even go so far as to hint at a developing El Nino. Meanwhile back at the ranch, we’re branding calves today and feeding tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow, just like we had a brain. More hay to be delivered this a.m.

Though this morning had the feel and look of a weather change, what clouds clung to the Sierras have originated out of the Southwest, a light monsoonal flow that meets the trailing tail of a low out of the Gulf of Alaska along the northern California coast—a northern storm already, a good sign. Though it feels like fall with the filtered light, temperature variations are minimal. The remainder of the month will be interesting.
