Dave Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 That is the same feeling I would have. But someone like Andrew on this forum (who is from Portland and went to CWU in Ellensburg) is a RABID fan of CWU football and the Ducks and the Seahawks. Crazy for all of them! I guess they are all mutually exclusive. I grew up hating the huskies. We would sell out one game per season and that was only if we were hosting Washington. They took over 40% of Autzen stadium and were generally obnoxious about it (mid to late 80's) and kicked our butts routinely. On a side note, I'm still bitterly disappointed we blew it and missed hosting the Pac-12 championship game in Dec 2013. It was 0 degrees at what would have been the end of the game! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLI snowman Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 I think your memory is flawed. These were all colder and wetter than average Octobers in the SEA area, and they were all followed by pathetic winters. Though 1966 was better in the north, I think. Eh, no, my memory is fine. And I don't even live in the "SEA area", but to your point on each month there: SEA's averages in October are 52.48 average temperature and 3.75" of average precipitation, respectively. October 1999: 2.26", 52.13 = Dry and slightly coolOctober 1975: 7.75", 51.41= Wet and cool (this has been covered. I have mentioned this one several times now)October 1966: 2.92", 51.40= Dry and coolOctober 1982: 4.07", 52.71= Slightly wet and slightly warmOctober 2007: 3.32", 50.53= Slightly dry and cool So the only legitimately cool and wet October of the bunch there is the year I had initially mentioned. It's almost like I know our area's climate history pretty well or something..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 I’m looking at the gridded NOAA-NCEI data for the region. Using one station for an analysis like this is silly. Regionally speaking, those were cool/wet Octobers.

Regionally speaking, those were cool/wet Octobers. I can use other stations, if you'd like. The actual data is pretty straightforward. At PDX, the only cool + wet October of that bunch was also 1975. Same story at OLM. At EUG, 2007 and 1982 were also cool/wet. Of course, 2007-08 was a pretty good winter there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TT-SEA Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 30s, 40s, and 50s out there this morning... seems like less 30s this morning though. Pre-dawn temps in the 50s near the Sound and in the foothills... and in elevated places in the middle like Lakemont in Bellevue. 48 at SEA and 49 here. There is a little east wind here and it feels dry out there... but looks like there might be a little ground fog in the valley.
