Improving weather and clocks forward should make for good timing to view a few sunrises over the Cascades!

As we move towards just boring old rain or sunshine for at least the next 7-8 months, let's talk for a minute about the Sun and all its glory and beauty!

Looking East - Eagle Pointe, Snoqualmie 

We set the clocks forward an hour tonight so the sun will rise one hour later tomorrow (7:30 am).  Weather pending, we might be able to catch some nice sunrises in the coming days and weeks,  hopefully beginning with Sunday morning.  Not too early on a weekend, right?  That used to be 'early' before kids:)

Looking East - Douglas Ave, Snoqualmie

According to over 100 years of NWS data, the odds of rain for our area from mid-March to mid-April are 55-60%; and figure odds of cloud cover on the eastern horizon at sunrise is quite a bit higher.  Not exactly odds worth waking for, but if you are up.. have a look East.

In about a month from now (4/8), the sun will again be rising at ~6:30 am, or the same time as this morning (3/9 pre-clock change). On the first day of summer/longest day of the year (6/21) the sun will rise at 5:09 am with civil twilight beginning at 4:30 am!  Personally, not a fan😫

For the time being expect chilly mornings but dry through Monday.  Get out and enjoy the sunshine this weekend!🌞
