Weather Report
By Paul Lyons
Still 70 inches of snow at Donner Summit, but the longer days are surely melting away the snow pictured here. It was a decent ski season with some early snow and then a few storms in February. Like the last few years, the spring weather pattern seems to have arrived a few weeks early. Two weeks ago a cold northwest wind blew in that really had a bite to it with temperatures in the high thirties. With the winds comes a drier spring and the surfing takes a hiatus.
There is much talk of drought but I think it is way overblown. A drought is when it simply does not rain. We simply flush our toilets way too much. Stayed tuned for fire season just in a few months.
Below are photos from a Donner Summit trip in early March. Castle Peak and Emigrant Wilderness along the Pacific Crest Trail.
