Are you lecturing the people on here who know our climate like the back of their hand? We all know what is normal. Seattle averages 200+ dry days a year and has significantly more sunshine hours per year than most European cities. You want to say that it should always be cloudy and raining here so we should not point out when its unusually cloudy and wet. Its silly. It is not always raining here. Not even close. Dry days are more common than wet days in Seattle. That is climo. 1 1 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't trade our climate for anything (well, okay I'd take 2 more feet of annual sea level snowfall in the winter). I'm really into glaciers (and mountains and sunsets and forest and lakes and tall trees and more) and our cool weather with abundant precipitation is the reason that we have the only real glaciers in the lower 48. Sure there are a couple piddly ones in MT, ID, OR, and CA (excluding the somewhat larger ones on the volcanoes), but it's only in WA that we have in my opinion what is a truly alpine feeling landscape. And as compared to some of the areas further north with glaciers, we usually have at least a couple months every year to reliable get out and see/explore them. What a place to live! 5 Quote Home Wx Station Stats (Since January 2008): Max Temp: 96.3F (2009) Min Temp: 2.0F (2008) Max Wind Gust: 45 mph (2018, 2021) Wettest Day: 2.34 (11/4/22) Avg Yearly Precip: 37" 10yr Avg Snow: 8.0" Snowfall Totals '08-09: 30" | '09-10: 0.5" | '10-11: 21" | '11-12: 9.5" | '12-13: 0.2" | '13-14: 6.2" | '14-15: 0.0" | '15-16: 0.25"| '16-17: 8.0" | '17-18: 0.9"| '18-19: 11.5" | '19-20: 11" | '20-21: 10.5" | '21-22: 21.75" | '22-23: 10.0" 2023-24: 7.0" (1/17: 3", 1/18: 1.5", 2/26: 0.5", 3/4: 2.0", Flakes: 1/11, 1/16) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most other places have to regularly contend with 80°F DP's or (god forbid 'and') air temps in the 100s. Aside from late June and mid August, the weather was just normal hot down there; 88-95 and dry as all hell. Bad for fires, great for an escape from NOLA or Phoenix. 1 1 Quote Weather stats for MBY Snowfall: -Total snowfall since joining: 50.25" -2018-19: 21" -2019-20: 2.5" -2020-21: 13" -2021-22: 8.75" -2022-23: 5.75" -2023-24*: 0.25" -Most recent snowfall: 0.25”; January 17th, 2024 -Largest snowfall (single storm): 8.5"; February 12-13, 2021 -Largest snow depth: 14"; 1:30am February 12th, 2019 Temperatures: -Warmest: 109F; June 28th, 2021 -Coldest: 13F; December 27th, 2021 -Phreeze Count 2023-24: 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatyorologist Posted May 7, 2022 Report Share Posted May 7, 2022 4 minutes ago, Skagit Weather said: I wouldn't trade our climate for anything (well, okay I'd take 2 more feet of annual sea level snowfall in the winter). I'm really into glaciers (and mountains and sunsets and forest and lakes and tall trees and more) and our cool weather with abundant precipitation is the reason that we have the only real glaciers in the lower 48. Sure there are a couple piddly ones in MT, ID, OR, and CA (excluding the somewhat larger ones on the volcanoes), but it's only in WA that we have in my opinion what is a truly alpine feeling landscape. And as compared to some of the areas further north with glaciers, we usually have at least a couple months every year to reliable get out and see/explore them. What a place to live! ain't that the damn truth 1 Quote Weather stats for MBY Snowfall: -Total snowfall since joining: 50.25" -2018-19: 21" -2019-20: 2.5" -2020-21: 13" -2021-22: 8.75" -2022-23: 5.75" -2023-24*: 0.25" -Most recent snowfall: 0.25”; January 17th, 2024 -Largest snowfall (single storm): 8.5"; February 12-13, 2021 -Largest snow depth: 14"; 1:30am February 12th, 2019 Temperatures: -Warmest: 109F; June 28th, 2021 -Coldest: 13F; December 27th, 2021 -Phreeze Count 2023-24: 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawniganLake Posted May 7, 2022 Report Share Posted May 7, 2022 Victoria BC is sunnier than most of eastern Canada from the Great Lakes to the Atlantic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cascadia_Wx Posted May 7, 2022 Report Share Posted May 7, 2022 7 hours ago, Phil said: Western-WA is cloudier than the majority of the country 10 out of 12 months in the year. Lowest annual UV index of anywhere else in the lower-48. It’s a very cloudy climate. That’s just a fact. And the Snoqualmie Valley up against the Cascade foothills is way wetter and cloudier than Seattle obviously. Probably closer to the west slopes of the Olympics. The rain/cloud shadow effect drops off quickly moving east from the Seattle metro 2 Quote Summer grows while Winter goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
