Nature for the win

4 03 2024

Well, will you look at that!

Please pardon my pessimism and enjoy my gratitude that Mother Nature came through for Disappointment Valley and Spring Creek Basin (specifically). We got 2.5 inches (or more or less, depending on actual location) of the good, wet, white stuff Saturday night into Sunday morning!

It took a bit longer to melt this time than the half-inch we got last time, but by mid-afternoon, this, too, was reduced to ground-quenching mud. And that was perfectly fine. The wind continued … not as awfully as the day before but enough that it still tries to leach that desperately-needed moisture.

Sure was beautiful while it lasted … and good, soaking moisture when it melted. 😊

I’m loving this, TJ! Glad you and the ponies got some snow, and it was actually measurable. We’re still waiting…

So typical and crazy that we finally got moisture and you folks just to the south got completely missed!

Great shot and glad you got some snow! I’m guessing the roads are pretty muddy this time of year?

Well, when it’s dry, it’s great. Right now, it’s still very greasy-muddy! πŸ˜„

Me, too. I wish your area and others – such as other dry areas in our region – also had gotten the moisture. March is our “wettest month”; I hope that proves true this year.

Me too. Sometimes the late-summer monsoons come through. I don’t know. Beautiful morning out there, though. πŸ’™
