A classic West Coast astronomical event special.

26.7 mm yesterday IMBY. Sort of disappointed to see that Mt. Seymour is only reporting 20 cm :flakey: in the past 24 hours. Would have expected about twice that much up there.
It's called clown range for a reason.

I hope you enjoyed it. Models have trended way drier now. The dry Spring that was forecast is coming. Looks mostly sunny for weeks starting this weekend. It sort of looks like spring 1995, or 2004 at this point, going forward.

Would have been nice to get a huge late season dump. South coast snowpack are at 56%. Stage 1 water restrictions are coming on May 1st in anticipation of a hot and dry summer. I think that is all but a given now, a new normal.

That's definitely going to be just the new normal going forward.

Back in the day, as a teenager, I used to like heat waves even tho I hated the heat. Back then, they were shorter and more tolerable. Now tho they last forever, and even when they do subside, it's a very slow cool, and temperatures drag out in the 26 to 29c range with no real crash back to "normal."

Especially with the smoke and fires every year, I can't stand heat waves because I know it will lead to smoke, and the heat just plain sucks to be out in. 2021 is still etched in my mind.
