Monday was partly to mostly cloudy and seasonably mild, with high temps in the lower 60s and late evening low temps in the low 40s. Sprinkles/very light rain fell occasionally in the mid-late afternoon but only […]

There were a lot of exciting games on Sunday in the NCAA basketball tournament. The Sweet 16 has been finalized with the next game action not till next Thursday, with one of the regionals being held locally at the […]

Why does it always have to rain when we get a nice, warm day?  At least it’s suppose to hold off until later this afternoon or tonight.  We’re waiting for a dry period to get the truck washed but it just isn’t h […]

My patterns have worsened and now I have a long 5 day report. There’s a lot of conflicting activities that take up way too much of my time. One is the NCAA basketball tournament which started earlier this week. […]

This morning is starting out with plenty of sun but very chilly.  Highs should reach to near normal, and with the sun and light winds, it should be a great day to be outdoors.  Not sure yet if I’ll take a […]

We woke this morning to a trace of snow on our deck, and another brief snow shower came shortly after.  Now the sun is out.  Talk about bipolar weather!  I doubt that out temps today will make it out of the 30s bu […]

Yesterday began with dry, sun-filtered weather but it wasn’t long before the clouds moved in and we had rain, even mixed with snow at times, the remainder of our day.  We weren’t supposed to get that much rain […]

This morning has been dry but there is rain on the way for this afternoon.  We could get up to quarter of an inch, so there goes our dry week which was forecasted.  Oh well, at least it’s rain and not snow.  Ou […]

Seems that I am establishing a new pattern of two-day reports of late. I will work on trying to get caught up and to report daily if at all possible. We took some steps back over these two days, with below normal […]

On March 14th, the maximum temperature here in Happy Valley reached 61.2° under full sunshine, the first reading ≥60° since Nov. 4, 2018 – that is 130 days in between readings of that value. It was also the warm […]

After the storms of last Thursday, life goes on as a large group of people with chain saws, trucks and other equipment are there helping to clean up the mess.  The final assessment of these storms is that there […]

Still trying to get caught up, at least this update is covering only two days again and is in the traditional format. We are really getting into spring now, with low-mid 70s for highs on Thursday and Friday. The […]
