Good points all and I have been following the extended forecast and it is staying with dry ( mostly ) until the very end of Sept. Light / showers until mid Oct with the last two weeks of Oct. and Nov. just plain wet.

The one thing that has stayed the same is our dry summer will more or less continue but when the rains start it going to be cold rains then dry then cold rain. Rainy weather will come out of the N. Pacific.
