If you had a place at 1200 near the foothills you would have massive snowy winters. Lake King by Duvall/Monroe gets up to 1400 ft.

Not very populated so I can never find snow stats unfortunately 2 years ago i missed some land on gold mountain at 1200ft, there is a small area of public land otherwise its state land or state forest. it was 40 acres. I would of been in heaven there. Massive difference in winter climate at that level. 1 Quote We come from the land of the ice and snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Jim’s willingness to ingnore unfavorable details and wishcasting kind of bites him in the a** and sets him up for disappointment. I love his optimism and enthusiasm for this stuff but it was the same thing last year this time as well.

This pattern is very good for our region and we need to hold it as long as possible. Some warm sunny days (60s) scattered in there wouldn’t bother me at all at this point. Let’s just hope it’s in moderation. The trouble with warm and dry patterns these days is whenever we get them it they want to hold on and never let go. Spring is typically an up and down time of year through June. I think recent transplants have gotten used to dependably warm and dry summer weather starting the last half of April.

Literally always on your mind Maybe natives need to get used to a warming climate? Who knows? I know soooo many natives who also love to cheer on spring even though we all know its up and down. There is not that much of a difference. Its just human nature. But you absolutely love to categorize and generalize people. Must have divisions. 1 1 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
