Since I was not posting on this page during the prime fall color time, I’ll be posting some of my favorite images from a couple of weeks ago this week. This one was taken on Plumtaw road on the 18th of October. © 2023-Mark Langford

Forecast discussion…
We are now under a NW flow…which means near zero chances for any precipitation over the next 7 days. Look for mostly clear skies and close to normal temperatures with lows in the 20’s and highs in the 50’s. We may have to wait until the middle of the month to see our next decent rain/snow event.
5-Day Forecast…
Today-Monday: Mostly sunny with lows in the 20’s and highs in the 50’s. Winds SW 5-10, with gusts to 15mph. Cold spots could see lows in the teens.
