Campbell Creek From Winter To Spring In One Week

 Breakup used to be in March - when snows started melting, streets got wet, slushy, and muddy and cars raced through puddles spraying anything nearby.  And just when you thought it was done, we'd get an April snow.  But you knew it would be gone fast.  

Well, some of that happened in late March and early April, but then the temperatures dipped again.  By mid April we still had deep snow, though it was starting to evaporate.  Thanks to city and state plowing efforts, sidewalks/biketrails along streets were cleared pretty much by April 15.  

This past week or so has to be one of the warmest weeks ever in mid-May Anchorage.  We've been high 50s and low 60s each day.  Lots of sun.

Campbell Creek emerged from winter in about a week.  From the bridge at Lake Otis.
