It's Going to Rain This Weekend, 8/18/23

Post by JayOtheMountains »

Something about a hurricane named Hilary.

For the Southern Sierras, lotsa rain.
For the Central Sierras, lotsa rain, mixed snow in the upper elevations.
For the Northern Sierras, lotsa rain.

Wind, strong winds.

Thought y'all should know. :pancho

Good weekend to hide in the Trinity Alps, with the cooler temperatures as well.

Except, those new fires in the Klamath National Forest are spreading smoke to the Trinity Alps, with "unhealthy" AQI levels yesterday and today in Weaverville. See fire.airnow.gov.

Nevermind... >_<

It's always something I suppose. The mild fire season in the Sierra so far has me complacent. I haven't even been checking the smoke map this year.

Oh, then also don't plan anything for anything forested in Canada, either. ;)
