  1. Underperformed in your area but not every place from Seattle south. Tim and Andrew got more than modelled. Even Eugene (modelled to stay bone dry) got a few sprinkles.
  2. 69°F for a max yesterday, with 0.10" of rain, bringing me to 1.17" for the month.
  3. Not to mention being on the immediate coast, which is likely (as many climate models suggest) to mute the initial temperature signals of a warming climate.
  4. Word to the wise: one can minimize how how prolonged the consequences of making an error in a discussion (online or otherwise) are by promptly admitting the mistake and moving on.
  5. Accidental reverse psychology! (I was expecting it to get deleted rather soon after creating it.)
  6. I remember what you posted earlier the same day. And you just admitted that you don’t have a dashcam — your grandmother’s car does.
  7. Not a big surprise (clown range often works that way) and I am just fine with it.
  8. Isn’t that a bit like an analysis of the agricultural potential of the Sahara without (lack of) water being considered as an issue?
  9. I thought you posted above that you don’t drive.
  10. The month where you get rain shadowed and get nothing.
  11. I can’t remember any models showing precip getting that far south, so this actually represents overperformance! Hopefully you have better luck with the next system, whenever it comes. Although summers do tend to get drier the further south one gets, just the way it is.
  12. In driver's ed I learned that if you rear end another vehicle, you will get almost automatically found guilty of following too closely. One of THE KEY RESPONSIBILITIES of operating a motor vehicle is to avoid hitting things in front of you.
  13. If you have to stop so abruptly you are locking the brakes, you are stopping too abruptly. If you have to stop that abruptly (in theory, in practice it is not possible, because the brakes lock), then you are (wait for it) FOLLOWING TOO CLOSELY.
  14. If you are following too closely to be able to react to unexpected slowing or stopping and avoid crashing, then you are quite simply following too closely.
  15. And it means that someone was following too closely.
  16. Only about two weeks out on the Goofus! I take that 113 over PDX about as seriously as that -10 over PAE a few winters back.
  17. Overcast and rain here in Gastown. Umbrellas are in use down on the street.
  18. No, but sometimes the whining sticks in my memory.
  19. More light rain already. Enough to make the streets wet.
