Winter!

That's what the calendar claims, anyway. Washoe Lake State Park, Nevada. Not only is there no snow, at least so far, there's fire danger! The bigger bushes among the dry grass are sagebrush. At least Washoe Lake (barely visible at the right) is still pretty full from last season. Carson City, Nevada, lies in the valley beyond the hills on the skyline. Looking south.

Thanks, Gudrun! Yeah, while the eastern US is freezing in record cold, we seem to be going back into the drought pattern in the west--

Did you get snow/rain from the storms of this past week?

We got some rain last week, but nothing but wind this week. There's a chance of an atmospheric river next week (ca. Fri the 19th), so we'll see. We're not going to go skiing until there's more snow!

We're only show a slim chance for LA or here around the 18th. Considering our fire hazards, we need drizzle rather than rain in this part of the state.
