Hi Wes,
Seattle area here. We're about as dry as ya'll are. Over 20 days with no rain in the city this month. Today was the first time the Cascade's in this area have seen snow since the first week. Snow pack is looking very dismal.

Here in Central Oregon (Bend), we have highs around 46-48 and a low of
33. Light showers and cloudy. It has felt like spring the last two
days.
I have never seen a winter here with so little snow and almost no cold
weather in town. (we are at 3600' elevation and on the east side of
the Cascade Range.) In Central Oregon, except for a surprise,
fast-disappearing storm in early November, our snow cover this winter
in the lower elevations has amounted to one storm that left 1 inch!
The Oregon mountains aren't doing much better...about 90 inches at the
ski mountain, and only 75% of normal moisture. That follows a year
that was a borderline drought year that featured some major forest
fires.
Not a good sign. I hear from my mother in Colorado, there hasn't been
much moisture there either. How's it going in north Washington state?
(planning a trip there this season.)
Gonna have a bunch of grumpy fish this coming season!!
Wes
