6 April 2024
This week March went out like a lamb and April got here in like a lion.
After photographing home plants Easter morning I traveled out to Independence Marsh in Beaver County. I didn’t to find my goal chook, rusty blackbirds, however I did to find spring plants. Dutchmans breeches, cutleaf toothwort, bloodroot () above and the primary tiny bloom on taking pictures big name () underneath.
Once March used to be over, issues went improper. I will have to have identified after I noticed this sky of mammatus clouds on Saturday, 30 March. Now not a just right signal.
It rained and rained and rained on April 1-3, atmosphere a document of two.68 inches on April 2. Streams and basements have been hit exhausting whilst the rain used to be falling. The rivers rose, as proven at at Duck Hole on 4 April with the Monongahela River at parking space stage. (extra flood footage and movies right here)
Later that very same day, Thursday 4 April, the temperature fell and so did graupel.
Lately it’s chilly however the precipitation has in any case stopped.
In the meantime ….Take into accout the ones stunning tulips I posted closing Sunday, Easter morning?
And keep in mind the deer I noticed between two highrises in Oakland on 24 March?
Smartly, the 2 met up and the tulips didn’t fare neatly.
That used to be on N Neville Boulevard. Right here’s N Craig Boulevard.
Deer injury has come to the “asphalt jungle.”
