GobBluth Posted July 1, 2021 Report Share Posted July 1, 2021 22 minutes ago, TT-SEA said: Yeah... and that little ULL does not seem to matter in the big picture. We are watching the period after that when the 4CH seems intent on expanding and shifting west. If what's shown on the 18z and the Euro is the extent of the 4CH inevitable flex and our warmup, I think we should consider ourselves lucky. The lack of any prospective rainfall is the bigger problem and it's too bad the flow won't back to the S or SE to draw up some monsoon moisture. Maybe later this month or August. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, restoration forestry is a thing. Log the smaller trees, mulch the brush, then set fire to what remains. Because the ladder fuels are gone, you will have a ground fire that the remaining big trees survive. Then just let it burn whenever it catches fire, because it will be another ground fire. Have seen the results of it in the eastern Cascades of both Oregon and Washington and it leaves a very aesthetically-pleasing open forest of large pine trees, with lots of forest floor wildflowers in the spring. Only wrinkle is that there is not much money in small spindly logs, and no money at all in mulched brush, so such forestry never pays for itself. It must be subsidized. 5 Quote It's called clown range for a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
