I hope Jesse is ok. I know he is hating this one.

Elk have been pretty active in the area lately, in the fall it felt like anywhere I went i saw elk pissing on eachother to mate. Btw, not sure why you think we usually have a foot of snow, maybe you've been lucky other times you've been here because on average we'll have a couple or a few inches, a foot isn't that common.

Wow, PDX hasn’t dropped below 42°F in 11 nights now. Streets like this coming to a PNW city near you?

And if certain models are correct, they won't have to wait too long for things to turn cold again as a very similar pattern returns.

Saw these elk in Sunriver yesterday. The ground really should be covered in a foot plus of snow this time of year, but at least there’s a few patches.
