Those names were doomed.
Been getting lots of rain here and snow in the mountains. Which is good, we were short on our snow levels.
Unfortunately it looks like 9 people were killed in an avalanche near Tahoe.
Looking at the USDA SNOTEL data for California (it only covers 5 northern basins), there is the same pattern that Idaho is showing: Precipitation is above normal, but snowpack is still well below normal. The storms of the last few days helped fill in the hole, but the hole is still there. We'd need a few more like that to make it to average snowpack.
I went camping up in Bogue Chitto State Park over the weekend. Apparently, there's an enormous wildfire going on close to there that started the day we left.
Like I took I-12 that morning to get to the Northshore to head south and everything was fine, but by the time I got home they had shut down that part of the interstate.
You southerners are strange. Camping in Feb. Sheer lunacy. :)
It was actually warm all day Friday and Saturday then it plunged down to the 40s Sunday morning.
That fire was pretty insane in the path that it took. I jumped the interstate twice in both directions.
Thankfully it happened in an extremely rural part of the state, as of right now, despite 180+ acres being destroyed there's been no report of property damage or lives lost.
That's why fires in Idaho don't make the news very often. We have huge fires each year, but we also have LOTS of wilderness. Some of those fires impact almost nobody. Heck, I ended up walking through one. I hadn't heard of any fires when I set out on a 16 day hike. About halfway through, in the heart of the Frank Church Wilderness, I thought it smelled kind of smoky. Then I stepped over a log, and as I stepped over it, I noticed flames shooting out one end of it. Turns out, I was IN the fire, it was just a low and slow fire just kind of smoldering along over a wide area.
Your jumping capabilities are impressive.Quote:

Doh! I meant to say "it jumped".
Bah! He gets an assist from gravity.
I don't know, I hear it's always dragging him down.
