Spectacular pics!    You could really be a professional photographer.   Also loved that nest cam capture you posted earlier.   Do you have the time lapse loop from this morning?

Will take a look tonight if I have time.  I’ll see how the clouds looked.  Thanks for the compliment on the photos. Been having a blast being out and about.

Got chased off the beach by a strong thunderstorm today.

50mph outflow sent dozens of beach umbrellas flying into the ocean. Then 10mins later a barrage of CTG bolts sent people screaming and running for cover.

I’m on my 7th Long Island and am loving life! :lol:

We’ve been at the Sea Island beach club for the past few days. Can’t believe how much money I’m spending. 😭 

Gonna have to detox big time when I get home. Been drinking way too much this summer, my tolerance is through the roof again.

Going out to ocean shores this weekend. Almost wish I was going during the heatwave to avoid the warmth back at home…but should be a good time either way. 

We have reservations in Neah Bay at the end of this month.  Super excited.  The Makah tribe has had the entire res closed since the beginning of the plague.  It just opened last month I think.

The models are actually toning down the heat for next week.  Shocking given how these things have been playing out this summer.

November 1955 might be the most comparable cold airmass to June 2021 in terms of sheer magnitude. A high of 21°F in Seattle in mid-November is almost unimaginable, yet it happened.

That's cold for just about anywhere in the US outside of AK for mid November.

And November 1955 was particularly hard on the native trees... probably similar to June 2021.

When I lived in K-Falls, a high in the upper 30's was considered cold in November. Every few years there'd be a
sub-freezing high occurring in late November. Looks like their last one at KLMT was 30 on 11/29/2019. 

There's always a day or two in November in the 60's there, so having 21 in Seattle in the late Fall is really impressive.

Careful. Dewey has probably been tracking you and waiting for a time when you are drunk and vulnerable. Hope your chastity belt is locked up. 

I’m still missing the context on this one. 😂
