Good Morning,
As expected, the rain has arrived, making its presence known around sunrise. These stormy conditions are slated to be rolling through the region all day and night, so count on trails to a bit sloppy today. Temps will range from 40s to 50s, but between the rain and wind gusts near 30mph, that could feel quite chilly to anyone improperly outfitted for the conditions. Layers for staying dry will be a must today if one has hopes of scaling the mountain as comfortable as possible. Precip could linger into Saturday morning as clouds slowly transition over to sunnier skies tomorrow. Then the next round of wet weather makes an appearance on Sunday. If anything is enjoying the mix of warm temps and intermittent rains lately, it has to be the park’s flora. Wildflowers across the mid elevations are really popping now, and the greenery of the forest canopy is starting to thicken down low. Even a small patch of spring beauties has appeared outside our kitchen in recent days. It’s a drawn out process, but getting to watch the ascendance of spring up the mountain’s slopes is always magical to behold. Stay dry and have a great day.
