Morning all. Over 3" of rain yesterday and for a while, we had waterfront property.
Late Afternoon...



About 2000hours



Around 2300hours. 12-14" at its deepest in the driveway. First time since we've lived here the water got this high.




This morning... All Gone!

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else.
Packing up and headed to Bravo in a bit. Have to pick up the “kids” from the babysitter.

Met hunting, fishing partner & friend plus his wife for breakfast yesterday morning in Lincoln City. Spent the afternoon at the aquarium. Warden and I did the Sea of Lights last night & then we went to Georgie’s for anniversary dinner. Great day overall. A few sprinkles but stayed dry.

Rich, did you have any front yard Salmon to catch?

On a bad note, got word yesterday that a Law Enforcement brother I worked with and shot with on the rifle & pistol team as well as swat brother, passed away yesterday morning. Former USN MAA. RIP Gene!

Good morning Chris, Jim and others.

Jim, glad you and Warden had a good time in Newport. Sorry to hear that your friend passed away.

Good afternoon Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Welcome to the shortest day of the year. Been dealing with a host of things this morning none of which has to do with the snow.
33.6° and has been 33.0 (overnight low) to 33.8 since 0330. Rain stopped at 0330 when it turned to snow. Been coming down steady and heavily since 0330 but doesn't seem to be building up as much or as fast as I thought it would. Very wet snow and the river is up quite a bit this morning. I don't think there is much more than 2" accumulation right now. We'll see what happens. The summit at the ski resort is 33.3 and mostly bare wet pavement with a little bit of slush on the shoulders and in the "oil pan". Can't see any snow fall at present in the camera and the crew report is scattered "fluries".
CJ went bouncing out through the tall grass in the meadow on her morning run. She 'bounced' up over a clump of grass and we could even hear the splash up at the house. She seemed pretty surprised, but it didn't seem to slow her down any. Some of the snow melt channels are getting water in them which usually doesn't happen this time of year.









Sea of Lights at the Aquarium on the 19th.
