All you visitors who've been in Central Oregon for the past seven or eight days and have seen nothing but gray clouds and rain: don't fret. This is not typical. This is, in fact, quite unusual. We really do only get 12 or so inches of rain per year. I promise.
The reason I'm bringing this up today is that I basically need reminding myself.
I'm rained out.
I moved to the east side of the Cascade Mountains because it was the dry side. So what gives? I know I should be grateful -- water is always a welcome sight in the high desert -- but I miss my mountains! They're hidden behind all that gray.
This (see photo left) is what it's supposed to look like in Central Oregon this time of year. This is why so many of us love it here.
They say we can expect rain through Sunday (sigh).
In case
that's the case, here's another image to serve as a reminder.
