Pacific northwest but west of the Cascades mountain range.
Rain. Rain for days on end.
It’s changed in recent times. It used to be more consistently constant with virtually no breaks in the rain and it was more of a drizzle too. Now it feels like it’s trending towards more substantial and less frequent, more like what the rest of the country is used to
The drizzle was better for saturating the ground and watering deep down without destabilizing everything. This torrent-pause-repeat thing is gonna cause more (and worse) landslides.
I’ve noticed that it’s heavier rain this year too. We always have somewhat erratic winters though, with each one being different than the last, so I figured this was just this year’s flavor of winter.

It is a heavier rain; that’s a very good point.
