Magnolia?   Ours is not blooming yet... maybe next week.   But those trees have buds all winter.

Whoops yeah, meant blooming. And I was referring to North Bend as a whole, given the picture you attached. I'm sure that the main incorporated part of town down by the river is much further along than your fancy microclimate situated 500' higher and a couple miles south.

Correct... we are usually a week behind downtown NB.

Beautiful tonight. Kiddos safely back to their mom and hopefully can spend a little more time focused on here.

Your place looks beautiful. Y’all are a wizard to do all the things you do.

Ended up with a beautiful 62/38 spread today. East winds got a little breezy in the afternoon.

Sort of an interesting pattern today with areas in the central and eastern Gorge being cool, calm and showery while the Portland area was warmer and sunny with breezy winds. Opposite of what you usually see this time of year. It’s all thanks to the counterclockwise flow in the upper levels around the low slamming into the Bay Area this afternoon. Unusual setup esp for late March.

Yeah good observation it was quite gusty here this afternoon. The best part of today was the blue skies finally returned instead of that awful blinding hazy sunshine last Thu-Sat.

Yeah that wasn’t the most visually appealing warm spell. Today was much prettier.

The strangest thing is happening right now. One side of the block I live on is foggy while the other side is not. Strange but kind of cool!

Plants are tough. Two nights ago it was 20°F with a hard wind, and I expected mass flower die-offs. Instead everything has continued blooming/greening.

It’s almost like plants have evolved over millions of years to handle challenging conditions. 😱

Elevation 580’ Location a few miles east of I-5 on the Snohomish Co side of the Snohomish/Skagit border. I love snow/cold AND sun/warmth!

That happens sometimes here when there’s a bit of wind.

Or after a long, heavy thunderstorm thick fog will form down in the creek valley but may or may not drift up here.

Not much orange/red on the LR 00z EPS.

Woohoo! 🥳

Its looked the same for a long time.    That cold signal in the SW is usually pretty nice up here as I have mentioned previously and has played out many times over the last month or more.    

And as it gets closer we actually do end up with a 850mb temps a little warmer than normal like yesterday and today and likely again next week.
