It was 79 degrees and sunny at one point last week. We spent a relaxing day sitting on the banks of the Crooked River getting berated by a pair of Canada Geese.
Then this week … it snowed.
Every morning we woke to a couple of inches of fresh snow. We had to break out the snow shovels and they even plowed streets again.
On the bright side, snowpack in the mountains is closer to normal. However, we didn’t attempt any road trips all week. These morning snows would mostly melt away by late afternoon, at least on the roadways. But it brought our adventures to a standstill.
Central Oregon didn’t have as many problems as some western parts of the state … we didn’t lose power or have a bunch of downed trees. I’m sure the skiers were glad to have the season extended.
But still, we are ready for spring to come back. Right now, the forecasted week of rain is actually looking good.
we had a tiny dusting of snow and lots of hail. Looking at rain all next week too but happy it’s not going to be cold.
