The weather out here since Monday has been absolutely perfect… we spent two days in the Grand Canyon / Sunset Crater and today in Sedona. The state of Arizona is so beautiful and the people so warm and welcoming. Seriously considering retiring here in 15-20 years (well hopefully). Absolutely love the cool mornings and warm afternoons here… Flagstaff has been a wonderful “home base” for us this week. We are heading up to Utah tomorrow and will plan on stopping by Monument Valley on our way to Canyonlands and Arches NP.

I guess 4th year in a row of drought in Washington.

Having a pattern change is completely different. Yea that would be beneficial. I was just saying adding 15-20in of snow in our current pattern wouldn’t make a tangible difference longterm.

Maybe some real thunderstorms this weekend

we had snow here around then too in april '23, a couple inches
