T-Town Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 2 hours ago, snow_wizard said: 61/36 here so far. From what I've seen Tacoma isn't good for the big diurnal spreads. McChord is a lot better though. Yeah we’re right on the water here, as is Tacoma Narrows. McChord and Ft Lewis are farther away and a bit more rural.

Yet another record high in a rapidly warming climate. Absolute NIGHTMARE HEAVEN in progress. Record highs in spring are amazing as long as the snowpack is okay, it's the record highs in summer that actually suck. Today is absolute heaven! 2 Quote Coldest temp this winter: -7 Jan 13th Snow depth at Mount Bachelor (last updated April 29th) 88" Snow depth at my home (updated April 29th) late season 1"! 23-24 seasonal snowfall at home (updated April 29th) 92"!!

LowerGarfield Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 4 hours ago, SilverFallsAndrew said: In other news... Our turkey population is exploding up here. Long timers say they had never seen turkey up here until a couple years ago. The Willamette Valley has insane numbers of turkey, I've even seen them in downtown and north Salem recently. What's the turkey situation like up in W. Washington? Can't answer for Western WA but they are pretty common in the foothills of the Blues where I live. My son is obsessed with turkeys.
