Here I am, sitting in my apartment outside Reno where the temperature is in the 70s and my wife is already listening to Christmas music, but in the Los Angeles and San Diego areas record-setting heat is sending […]

My wife and I recently moved from St. Anthony, Idaho to Fernley, Nevada. Fernley is in the greater Reno area on Interstate 80 and has about 25,000 people.
With this move, my blog will begin to cover more […]

Author Note: I wrote this post on my phone. The ‘featured image’ is from last winter because I can’t figure out how to upload images from my phone. Also be aware that formatting might be weird.
I love fall, it’s […]

I’m afraid that we’ll be getting that next week on our last camping trip for the year. Please keep it there until Oct. 1.

I’m impressed that you wrote this from your phone! I have trouble texting from my phone :p

Hurricanes are categorized according to the Saffir-Simpson hurricane wind scale, which organizes tropical cyclones with winds greater than 74 mph into categories from 1 to 5. Each category comes with a description […]

It’s no secret that I talk to a lot of weather folks in the Portland and Seattle areas, despite living in East Idaho. The “hot topic” (pun intended) of conversation in these circles is the impending heat wave, […]

It’s May (obviously), and if you’re like me you’re super angry to see the word snow being thrown around willy nilly. Well, it’s real and it’s coming. On the bright side, this is a quick-moving storm with […]

UC Berkeley’s Amateur Radio Club (archive) and the East Bay Amateur Radio Club (archive) in California launched a balloon with a tracking device Saturday, which allowed radio amateurs to see how far the […]

Wow, this is awesome! I’m really into vintage audio equipment (especially the giant “monster” receivers of the late 70s), and my explorations there have taught me a little about ham radio. It’s something I’d like to eventually get involved in when I get a little more settled down here in Portland.
I’ll check out the APRS, thanks for the link Mark!

This is really interesting! Thanks for sharing! Who knew a balloon could get that high in the atmosphere?! (OK, “who knew health care could be so complicated”–I get it!)

That is a fabulous map! Where can I find it?
I found a few more slides from the last week:
*Landslide: US 101, Hoodsport
*Landslide: SR 530
*Landslide: SR 7, Morton -
Mark started the topic Pacific Northwest landslides and washouts in the forum Weather Talk 9 years, 7 months ago
There have been an amazing amount of landslides and washouts. With all the moisture funneling into the Pacific Northwest, the ground is becoming more unstable and several areas are at risk to have more landslides.
Here is where we can compile a list of all the ones that have happened. Here are the ones I know of:
*Landslide: I-90,…[Read more]

Looks to me like the Willamette will rise another two feet in the coming days.

Yay, I’m Mark.
I have been interested in weather forever. I am going to BYU-Idaho and am excited for Spring to start so I can adventure around this area. When I’m not doing weather, I’m hiking around trying to find new things and new places.
Have questions about weather? There’s like a 50/50 chance I’ll know the answer, so feel free to ask. If I…[Read more]

Take a look at the Weather Service’s website this morning and south Idaho is a sea of green with Flood Advisories and Warnings. The snow is melting and rain is falling and those two together are causing record […]

Crazy amount of flooding going on here in Idaho already. The Raft River is 4.3 feet above its record level. Here’s the flood gauge:

If it seems like you’ve gotten a lot of snow so far this season, you’re not wrong. All of Oregon is above average for snowfall thus far, as well as most of Washington and southern Idaho. This is good for improving […]

Yup, you read that unfortunate headline right. The high at my house today in St. Anthony, Idaho is going to around 4, while the high where the Curiosity Rover is on Mars is forecasted to be 28. In fact, 10 […]

In the comments in my last blog post (archive), a family member of mine in the Salt Lake area lamented about not having snow. Instead of commenting something short, I decided to do a full blog post. I have good […]

I shamelessly admit that making a Christmas forecast right now is more of a crap shoot than anything, but I thought I might shed some light of the general idea that the Pacific Northwest is looking at here in t […]
