Don't read anything into this because you know with 100% certainty that the forecast will change in the next week, but the LONG range forecast is calling for a chance of AM rain/snow showers on Sunday because of a possible overnight low of 36 degrees (but a "feels like" 29 degrees). Glad I'm using a hot tent for the first time this year.
It wouldn't be the 1st time we've been on this hang and woken up covered with a fresh coat of snow.

Good! Don't mind the cloudy weather, but rain & snow can go bye-bye! This is what I'm seeing on WeatherUnderground - but will wait until Wednesday to check again to get a more accurate update:

Joyride has noticed that today the gate is back-closed to gravel drive into forest. Rangers might have reinstalled gate!
Phantom plans for sandwich fillings-toppings
Friday morning I’ll poll other campers their recommendations for Saturday’s sandwich fillings.
And anyone can post here their suggestions.
Then Friday afternoon I’ll go grocery shopping to get ingredients. Everything that is refrigerated at store will be placed in coolers to stay cold until Saturday lunch.

Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.
The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy,
while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn." — John Muir
