Cascadia_Wx Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 64/48 day here. Partly to mostly cloudy with a couple nice downpours in the late morning and early afternoon. Picked up .20” precip. Looks like we will move into a much warmer pattern starting right around the solstice. At least days will be starting to get shorter at that point. 2 2 Quote Summer grows while Winter goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pattern you are wishing for with wall to wall sun and below normal temps is pretty much impossible in the summer in our climate. But it happened in the 1950s tho.

PDX actually did record sunshine data from 1950 to 1995, and it's kind of a shame US stations don't do this anymore. Places elsewhere in the world still record sunshine hours. The cloudiest year in that span was 1955, which had 1596 hours of sunshine (about what London or Forks typically gets in a year). The sunniest was 1987, which had 2872 hours, comparable to eastern Montana or most of the Southeastern US. Probably not unreasonable to assume the Rogue Valley gets that in a typical year either? Here's the data for yourself: https://www.weather.gov/media/pqr/climate/ClimateBookPortland/pg136.pdf Seems to indicate that the good ol' days were in fact pretty cloudy. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our coldest summer months historically have been quite cloudy for the most part which you can determine fairly easily looking at diurnal ranges, and usually have a lot of days with rain at least by the standards of our summer climo. There are exceptions of course, but very sunny and notably cool summer months have always been rare. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWbyNW Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 So my Everett station seems to be having an issue. It's apparently 0F degrees and cloudy. Real temp is 56F. The 7 day forecast is ok. Thankfully it doesn't look too hot. Sad to see so much sunshine. Hope the clouds stay to some degree. I already miss the rain. But it was a good stretch we had.

Randyc321 Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 Finally this looks about normal. Been reading the complaining here for weeks about this spring but it hasnt been unpleasant. Growing has sucked but that looks to improve soon, except for the increase in rabbits this year. This is still way preferable to almost anywhere in the country. I am a 2005 transplant and this seems like those first few springs. Summer around the 4th of July. Got a party planned for the brand new deck on the weekend of the Fourth.
