But some cherry blossoms tried to make an early arrival last month.
No snow in the forecast for the next 10 days either.
EDIT (1/11/2016) – What about following a format on the monthly Road and Trail Conditions thread to make these easier to read? These threads sometimes contain off-topic or marginally-related messages. What about if hazard warning posts always start off with the name of the location in bold type and all caps? Then a more detailed description of the problem could follow. For example, something like this:
MVT/GRAVELLY POINT – 1/23/2018, 8 am
Downed tree, 100 ft. north of the airplane viewing area. Blocking the entire trail. NPS has been notified.
This would make the thread easier to read for people who want to see hazard/obstacle warnings quickly before they head off to work/school/other. There wouldn’t have to be a precise format, as long as people use similar formats that highlight the location of the problem and make the notice easy to spot by those scanning through the thread quickly.
Just a suggestion. Obviously no one has to follow this suggested format. I just thought that it would make these threads easier to use by those who are in a rush in the mornings, evenings or any other time of the day.
EDIT (1/20-1/21/2016) – Now there’s snow. And plenty more on the way tomorrow.
