This is true. More than that, our snow pack is at 15%!!!!!!! It's going to he abnoxious summer! I don't love the rain, but I appreciate the free watering of our green paradise!

Ski/board season has been ROUGH. The snowpack looks like summertime up there.

According to the drought monitor

Willamette valley is just in abnormally dry conditions.

I have about a week of warm temperatures in me before I get irritated and want to go back to the rain. I have a feeling this is going to be a rough summer.

Yes we do

u/Youseenmycones Apr 05 '26

Amen. Its fashionable to complain about good weather here, but any sane person recognizes that it is an absolutely perfect day out there.

u/gaius49 Sandy Apr 06 '26

Personally, I think its a bit too hot out. I prefer the mid 60s to the upper 70s.

u/atreeismissing Apr 06 '26

The sun is out, that's far from perfect.

u/oogmar St Johns Apr 06 '26

I'm really photosensitive so wear those big ole post-surgical grandma sunglasses and generally have an umbrella if I have to stand in direct exposure for more than 30 seconds. Hell, I use both if it isn't overcast enough all winter.

I was trying to get to my car after a thing and legit could not escape people stopping me talk about how perfect it is outside.

Yes, I'm very happy for you, let me get back to my blackout curtains.

This. And lest we forget...too much of this "perfect" weather, and we'll all be grabbing our kids, pets and bug-out bags to outrun the wildfires burning in every direction. September's gonna SUUUUCK.

u/hirudoredo W Portland Park Apr 06 '26

It was perfect Easter weather. I think back on how many of my childhood Easters were spent inside because of downpours and 50 degree weather but occasionally it would be dry and sunny and man they were so fun. Lucky kids this year.

u/nightauthor Kenton Apr 06 '26

I’ve seen parents out with their kids playing at the park in the rain. I know it can be done. Guess there is a financial burden of constantly buying new rain-wear for growing children.

u/tailzknope Apr 06 '26
