Regional Roundup
by Clave) Twitched
Mail Tribune. Regional Editor
What a difference a few thousand, or even just a
few hundred, leet can make. A few weeks ago we dis
cussed some of the oddities in weather conditions one
can find in southern Oregon-how one can in winter,
leave the Rogue Valley in sunshine, go through a bliz
zard andor fog on the Siskiyou summit and then come
back down into sunshine in California, passing through
a little rain on the way.
It constantly intrigues me how the temperature can
can vary 10 or 20 degrees in just a few miles, or how it
can rain or snow in one location but not in another
location nearby. One of the times snow fell on Medford
this past winter, it only rained in Grants Pass. The snow
line ended abruptly just west of Rogue River. Yet
Medford is only about 400 feet higher than Grants Pass.

WHAT WARMING HUT? Yes, somewhere in there is a
building. This is how the warming hut at Crater Lake ap
peared a couple of weeks ago neatly buried in quite a few
ic.et of snow, except for the parking area which is kept clear.
A good illustration of the effect of higher elevation
on weather conditions can be observed by taking a trip
to Crater Lake in the early spring. I did about two
weeks ago. I left the floor of the valley on a sunny,
1 hot day when the ground was already getting so dry
It was cracking in places. My family and I stopped for
a picnic lunch along side of the road Just north of
Prospect. We picked a good spot, because just a few
' miles farther up the road the roadside areas were all
covered by a fool or more of snow.
As we progressed on into Crater Lake national Park
the drifts by the side of the road gradually increased in
height. Yet there was very little sensation of cimbing in
1 elevation until the last couple of miles up to the rim.
1 Amid the tremendous blanket of snow in that area It
teemed difficult to believe that there was no snow at
I all just 40 miles away and that a mere 80 miles away
1 the ground was dry and cracked.
