such as happened a couple years ago ...

Right now, its a balmy 57 here in San Francisco (well, it feels pretty
balmy to me). Tomorrow I head back to Omaha with a high of 37 and a
90% chance of snow.

It's not that I want ya'll freezin'

just that we don't want an extra warm period right now

a couple years ago a very nice snow pack washed out to the sea ( instead of
sinking into the ground ) in May and the summer ended up hot and dry enough
that many fisheries were closed down to protect the surviving fish

this year we have a chance to replenish groundwater in most of the West ...
just need a 'normal' Spring, instead of a extra hot one ... don't like
seeing a 30degree rise in 3 days, scary ( if you like fish, or food grown
with irrigation, or drinking water )

It snowed a half inch here in Spanish Fork, UT yesterday. This winter
has about caused me to lose faith in global warming.

This could be a great year for you to take a trip back home, Russell

That lovely river snaking through one of God's most splendid efforts just
might be pretty high until late July, however G

Yep, that's Oakdale. I spent a lot of time there when I was a kid. Learned
to fish on the Stanislaus out around Atlas Rd. I've seen it hit 100+ in
mid-April in the Central Valley. Not sure what's in store for me here in
Central Colorado, this Summer, but right now I'd kill for one 70 deg day.

My Mom always used to tell me that it was 105 on the day I was born
(April 15) outside of Los Angeles.
