It rained last night!

Don’t just keep ones head down and ones pace steady, look behind to make sure there’s no trail of destruction. Consider that the things below ones feet in physicality, are actually above ones head in importance. Remember that we are not the only ones alive, and are definitely not depended upon to continue living. We are an expendable creature in the eyes of the earth. Thus, we must treat ourselves like we are guests. Accommodations must be made for life all over the planet. The power of life is incredibly diverse, intelligent, and intricate in its adaptability. Lets not give nature a reason to consume us in turn.

yeah i looked around, no pins. last year i've only actually seen one cyan pin there. maybe this is left over from last year... jk. but i'll be looking around at spots around here since it's usually colder and wetter than other parts of the city. and yeah this one is very old and slug eaten. still good news.

Howdy folks. Looks like the season is going to start with a bang next tuesday/wednesday. Too bad I will be in the middle of the Nevada acting like a Republican for a few days. If all goes as planned I will come back with a new outlook on life and an urge to replenish my stockpile. See you guys soon!!!!

Hey sui. I hope that stuff takes off also. I had a few parking lots in the valley explode with life last season. I guess this means that I have to fire up the pressue cooker and start playing with culures again.
I will be shooting guns, playing with explosives, drinking beer and riding dirt bikes. My carbon foot print will be huge. I will offset this by cracking whippits and eating fingus. It should be awesome!!

Looks like plenty of rain should be on the way.
Quote:
A POTENT STORM SYSTEM...ESPECIALLY FOR OCTOBER...WILL MOVE INTO CENTRAL AND NORTHERN CALIFORNIA BEGINNING LATE MONDAY AND CONTINUE THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING. THIS WILL BE A VERY DRAMATIC CHANGE FROM THE TYPICAL LATE SUMMER PATTERN THE AREA HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING. THE ORIGINS OF THIS STORM ARE FROM A WESTERN PACIFIC TYPHOON CALLED MELOR THAT HIT JAPAN A FEW DAYS AGO.
RAIN AND INCREASING WIND WILL BEGIN IN THE NORTH BAY MONDAY AFTERNOON...SPREADING SOUTH MONDAY NIGHT. TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT SHOULD SEE THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL AND THE STRONGEST WINDS. RAINFALL AMOUNTS COULD REACH 1 TO 3 INCHES ALONG THE COAST AND IN THE VALLEYS. IN THE HILLS...RAINFALL AMOUNTS WILL RANGE FROM 2 TO 4 INCHES IN THE NORTH BAY...WITH 3 TO 6 INCHES IN THE SANTA CRUZ AND NORTHERN SANTA LUCIA RANGE NEAR BIG SUR. LOCAL AMOUNTS UP TO 8 TO 10 INCHES ARE POSSIBLE IN THE SANTA CRUZ AND SANTA LUCIA RANGE. WINDS TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT WILL INCREASE TO 20 TO 40 MPH ALONG THE COAST AND IN THE HILLS. GUSTS TO 60 MPH ARE POSSIBLE IN THESE AREAS. STRONG SOUTHERLY WINDS MAY DEVELOP IN THE NORTHERN SALINAS VALLEY AND SOUTHERN SANTA CLARA VALLEYS WITH THIS STORM.
RAIN AND WIND WILL DECREASE ON WEDNESDAY AS THE STORM SYSTEM MOVES TO THE EAST.
POTENTIAL IMPACTS FROM THIS STORM SYSTEM INCLUDE:
* POSSIBLE MUD AND DEBRIS FLOWS FROM BURN SCARS FROM LAST SUMMER AND THIS SUMMER. PERSONS LIVING NEAR THESE AREAS SHOULD PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO UPDATED FORECASTS. * URBAN AND SMALL STREAM FLOODING AND PONDING ON ROADWAYS AND UNDERPASSES. * HIGH WINDS THAT CAN DOWN TREES AND THUS POWER LINES PRODUCING POWER OUTAGES. * HAZARDOUS DRIVING CONDITIONS DUE TO VERY SLIPPERY ROAD CONDITIONS FROM A BUILDUP OF OIL OVER THE SUMMER AND DEBRIS SUCH AS LEAVES ACCUMULATING ON THE ROADS.
THIS IS A POTENTIALLY SERIOUS DEVELOPING WEATHER SITUATION. LOOK FOR MORE DETAILED STATEMENTS TO BE ISSUED AS THE STORM GETS CLOSER. CONTINUOUS WEATHER INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE FROM THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ON NOAA WEATHER RADIO OR FROM THE INTERNET AT: HTTP://WEATHER.GOV/SANFRANCISCO.

It is not a competition, but what makes the Bay Area ahead of PNW? A couple of old specimen?
Shockvalue posted mature stuntzii more than a month ago.
I posted mature Psilocybe baeocystis exactly one month ago, and a hundred Psilocybe cyanescen pins recently.
Bring it on Bay Area!!!

the earliest cyanescens have been found in the bay I believe is August 16th, im pretty sure that beats the PNW.
also, the season can last well into april or may, which bends the PNW over with a pineapple.

Not in this thread, or this year.
Sounds like hearsay.
I'm not sure "which area beats which", but I have to support mine, of course. 
Anyway I love healty competition. You guy's certainly have a much longer season, but let's see whose thread contains more pictures, or some other good form of telling which area "wins".
Any suggestions?

Yes, I heard my eyes say it when I was the one to find them August 16th, 2005, in the Bay Area, month(s) before the PNW season.
