I sit here, thinking about the weather in Western Washington State. For a big event is being touted by every meteorologist right now “The skies will fall!”. Sitting on a rock in the Salish Sea, in the Olympic Rainshadow, I’ll sit and wait. Is it winter hollering back one more time? It should be a good one along the Cascade Mountains, but spring is here. The overly excited predictions are hail, rain and tornadoes. I’ll go for rain being the major event. Maybe I’ll be wrong. I hope not.
In a few more weeks, the bad weather will be forgotten as all the trees open, flowers surging. Already the first blossoms 🌸 are almost here. The rhubarb is coming up quickly. Life is returning.
The birds are out singing, even as the weather starts to turn this afternoon. As my time in Washington State winds down, I’m happy to get to see the start of spring, then see it again in West Virgina soon.
