A ski area with no snow is a sorry sight in late December. Especially for the owners of these resorts! The summit of Snoqualmie Pass was still bare a few days ago, and although it is snowing this morning at pass level, yet another Pineapple Express storm will melt and wash away most of it by afternoon. Flood warnings again on the rivers.
I sound like a broken record about how warm it is, month after month. Now December is going down as perhaps the warmest in Seattle, counting back to 1890. It's raining cats and dogs this morning, and traffic will be a mess. I still have plenty of cookie and other chores to do, so I won't venture far from home on the "busiest shopping day of the year."
The good news, bad news of all this warm rain is the plants like these alliums I photographed yesterday (and of the course the weeds) are sprouting up like it was February.
