Looks like more rain here and maybe some snow on the tops of the valley mountains.

We still have a trace of snow on top of some of the west side hills.(Salinas Valley)

Spring in southern Louisiana -- Cajun Country:

After some kayak paddling on the Vermillion River this afternoon, which got me a little warm, I almost turned on the A/C in my "camper". Temperature was about 80°F with 65% RH. But I resisted that noisy option and just turned a little fan on me. Good enough.

We are starting to melt out the snow here in the valley in east Idaho at 6200' - did fish the South Fork Snake yesterday and paddle the canoe upriver on the Teton today. Lot's of ice banks on the Teton, but plenty of open water. Glad to have the melt beginning!

While spring is wonderful, be careful what you wish for:

We found spring on our visit to the coast 2 weekends ago!  Flowers are blooming, I know when I see daffodils, it is spring in Oregon.

Spring?

We’ve had daffodils  blooming for weeks here in Hillsboro. It was 27F thus morning. Someone has a sense of humor.  :D

Thanks for the photos. Sunset Bay looked nice.
We have stayed there with friends from Eugene.

 

Shore Acres is such a beautiful place to spend time.

 

Thanks.

They've dropped the tornado watch for my area, but the 'regular' storm finally got here. Raining pretty hard with lightning and thunder.
I'm at the blue dot:

Nice to be cozy inside a fiberglass shell.
