We had a wee bit of fog early this morning. Fog! That's even more rare than snow here. I'm from the coast and really miss fog.
Here is a pic from this morning of a bobcat crossing the bicycle path by the river bed. You can see the fog in the distance behind him, or her, there were two hunting together but they don't pose well for photos.
Uh oh, warmer temps / early Spring blooms in the U.S. means cooler temps for us here in Oz. My trusty black mulberry turning gold will be the first Autumn sign. We ended up with 27.5C here yest.

More than 85 per cent of Australians live within 50 kilometres of the ocean, but the variation in weather across any slice of this narrow coastal band is substantial.
The contrast will be particularly sharp this weekend for Western Australia, South Australia and western Victoria — travelling from the coast to the adjacent hinterland will bring a substantial increase in maximums.
Take Perth for example, beachside residents can expect a relatively pleasant 30-degree-Celsius ocean breeze on Saturday afternoon, while eastern suburbs are trapped under a plus 40C dome of heat.
