Last Friday was the first rainy day since spring. It was rather cold and windy and I had to wear a jacket over my usual short-sleeve shirt. Luckily, this last weekend was more typical and I was riding bike in a t-shirt. The reason I love October (and, symmetrically, Mar-Apr) is that the sky is still blue and the sun is shining but the temperature becomes much more comfortable for outdoor activities. I really like the 70-75 range.
My impression is that rains here are slightly different although I hesitate to clearly explain how exactly. Probably that's why they call them showers - a plenty of water and some wind make you pretty wet. Almost every time I had to dry my trousers an boots after just a 10-minute exposure. The good news is that there are no dirty stains left on clothes once it has dried - something which still does not cease to amaze me :) In earnest, the rainy season is supposed to be officially started in Nov. A rainy day predicted this week means we might be slightly ahead of the schedule but so far it is warm enough to offset any inconvenience.
