TT-SEA Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 When it finally starts raining here... the trees are going really fill out and the leaves are going to open up. Most of the trees in our yard now have small leaves (even the alders) but they still don't look too green from a distance. I love the first rain after a dry, warm spell in the spring because everything jumps ahead. Looks like that will wait until Wednesday up here... with plenty of rain to follow. By next weekend it should look much more lush around here.

Jesse Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 I haven't noticed any trees leafed out. Just budding. I was shocked by Tim's pics from tropical North Bend. But to be honest I don't pay much attention. It's spring, the trees .leaf out...Happens every year.Seems like the cottonwoods had some visible green on them. But yeah like you said, pretty normal.

Here is a cam from the Issaquah Highlands at about 900 feet... It is what it is... you mock it like its not really happening. Nobody said it was ahead of schedule. I am just surprised that we are even close to normal given the cold and snow we had for 6 straight weeks.

Jesse Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 What hike did you do up the LNFWe did Henline Falls. A large but mostly unknown waterfall up that valley. There is an old mine shaft by it for added interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 Is that Henline? Yes. Started hitting snow along the road above Salmon Falls (about 1,100’) There was some snow on the Henline Falls trail around 1,600’ but it was doable. Then we drove up to the Jawbone Flats/Opal Creek trailhead. A foot or more there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise some regulation is a necessary evil I suppose. It is the preferred alternative to seeing places either get completely trashed or have them privatized.

Rain every day on my iPhonecast.6F057646-62B9-4D43-99B8-8663450B44EC.pngI don’t use the stock weather app. I use Wunderground. Tells you when it will rain, to the hour. For a day or two, it’s definitely useful. Wunderground also allows you to look at a map of weather stations in your area. Of course, I trust weather models even more, and all of them suggest a rainy early April. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TT-SEA Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 Certainly looks like we will turn a corner as we enter April, judging by the 12z runs.A wet week is pretty much inevitable. It would be really strange for it not to happen at this point. Can't wait to see how much more spring progresses this week. Actually looking forward to some rain. It will also be interesting to see if we continue the cycle of focused wet periods and ridging in between as we move into the warm season. But for this weekend... I am just enjoying our mythical ridge that was not going to happen.

Omegaraptor Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 This April is starting to look like last April...well might be a overstatement last April was record wet it would be surprising if we matched last April this year. Plus we only have an idea of what the first week of the month may look like at this point. Could end up being mostly dry like this month but hopefully not. Very interesting stretch of weather we have had after the record cold for about 40 days we’ve had nearly 20 days above average temps. Not very much above average fairly close but still just a flip of the script. It’s been nice having all of this warmer weather recently.It’s worth noting that Seattle and Puget Sound was only record wet last April because they got an unusual AR on 4/14 that dumped 1.70” on SeaTac. That AR missed Portland entirely. We ended up with precip slightly above normal at 3.34”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
