"LIQUID SUNSHINE!"😅 😎...............................NORTHWEST ADVENTURES! 😀
“Liquid Sunshine!”😅😎
What time of year is it my friends?
Just look at the second photo, this tree is definitely confused, it thinks Spring is already here Lol!🤣
Fall has been exceptionally warm and wet!
This time, last year, we already had snow on the ground!🥶
“Liz, have you checked the river level of the Nooksack?”………..😮
Several times Silvertop thought that the river was going to crest over flood stage……then the rain temporarily stopped!😇
I don’t recall a Fall when we still had colorful leaves on the trees in the forest this late in the year……….
Storms keep rolling in………..😅
Over on the “drier” Eastern side of the Mountains my friend @flemingfarm is getting his share of rain, his forecast shows rain for the next several days!
Down in “Sunny California” @thebighigg is talking about Orange County flooding!😳
Back here at home, people are fighting over water rights, screaming shortages and droughts, and more regulations, permits, and fees!🤔
“Liz, the rain just soaked through my high-quality Columbia raincoat!”😳
Across the “Pond” my friend @drlobes and his furry companion “Max” are hoping for snow in Romania!😇
Silvertop………….
I am just looking for any hint of Sunshine in the forecast!😎
Let me grab my raincoat…….. I am going hiking!☺️
Till tomorrow Silvertop Mike 😊
@silvertop, these photos are absolutely stunning! The vibrant colors of the leaves against the backdrop of the misty, rain-soaked landscape create such a dramatic contrast. "Liquid Sunshine" is the perfect description!
It's fascinating how the unseasonably warm and wet Fall is impacting everything, from the confused trees to the river levels. Your mention of @flemingfarm's rainy forecast and @thebighigg's Orange County flooding really puts things in perspective. Even @drlobes and Max in Romania are hoping for a different kind of weather!
This post is a fantastic snapshot (pun intended!) of the current weather weirdness and a reminder of how interconnected we all are. Thanks for sharing your hike, even in the downpour! It's inspiring to see you embrace it. Anyone else experiencing similar weather shifts or have interesting nature observations? Share your thoughts below!
