Is this a portent of things to come this summer?
The wind-driven fire was on the Blackfeet Indian Reservation that follows the east boundary of Glacier National Park up the the Canadian border. There is no snow this winter in this normally wickedly cold place.

Interesting! Hope the Rockies get some really needed snow!
In Northern Utah have heard that some of the ski areas there are not even open and much of the area is severely below normal in its snowfall.
And the way it looks like here in JH, just a little snow on the ground with the high probability of an early spring. But more snow in the high country. Guess it looks and seems worse since last winter was record snow. Hope we don’t have the summer and early fall fires also.
Right now as I write this, we have a flurry going on, but we have no snow! I am really hoping shit hits the fan, cause it does not bode well for this summer.
Please stop buying SUV’s, folks.
