Fall is in the air. Temperatures are dropping, the sun is setting earlier, and everything pumpkin spice is back on the shelf. All we are missing is a little color in the leaves overhead. For all you fall lovers out there, those days are nigh. The green in the leaves of summer comes from chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is the chemical in plants that turns sunlight and water into food through photosynthesis.

SPOKANE, Wash. — Wildfire season in the Northwest is expected to be active this year. The El Niño that brought warmer temperatures and drier conditions to the region this past winter will continue through most of the summer. There are signs of La Niña conditions forming, but the cool, wet pattern likely won’t return until later this fall. An abnormally warm dry winter in Washington and north Idaho led to a below-average snowpack in the Olympic Mountains, North Cascades, and the Northern Rockies.

SPOKANE, Wash — There are a lot of places to ski in the Northwest, but there is only one 'Dude.' For decades, Dude has been operating the lifts at Mount Spokane Ski & Snowboard Park in eastern Washington. "You learn to deal with the elements," he says. And this year, the elements have not been the best; ask Dude and he'll tell you. "Slushy and wet... And then we have snirt. Which is snow-dirt mix." Dude has a lot of ways to describe the snow, but there is one word he won't use.
