May 2019 High Sierra Storm Activity to Recharge High Sierra Snow Pack
HIGH SIERRA WEATHER PROSPECTS
A, "Spring Recharge," is Underway...
Highly Unusual Sequence of Winter-Like Storms Headed for California (In late May!),
Weather West, May 14, 2019.
MAIN POINTS
End of Dry-Warm Strecth
"A very warm April and relatively warm start to May–coupled with rather dry conditions throughout the state during that period–will come crashing to an end tomorrow."
"...perhaps even downright stormy, conditions are expected across most of California over the next 10 days or so."
PCT & Widespread Effects
"...highly unusual nature of widespread significant rainfall (and mountain snowfall) this late in the season will likely catch a lot of folks by surprise, and will have some substantial impacts for the agricultural sector and those traveling (not to mention those poor souls just starting out on the Pacific Crest Trail)."
Get Ready to Rumble
"Widespread soaking rains will arrive across the northern half of California tomorrow, and will continue on and off for the next 10-12 days. Significant rainfall is also possible across much of southern California, although that will more likely come from subsequent systems."

The transitions between seasons, their basic character, their timing, temp, and humidity transitions have all changed. The directions from which the seasonal winds blow have changed. These changes are reverberating through and disrupting webs of life that wrap around the whole planet.
Blooming, feeding, mating, and migration patterns of all living things are changing around the world.
Here we track the obvious and the subtle human affects on Nature. The club and the knife, if you will.
