The conversation has switched to rainbows and the shiitty picture upload issue on the forum...

[Omegaraptor]

Last hint of a blue sky in Hood River!

[TigerWoodsLibido]

27.85" at EUG is the 3rd driest since 1940, behind only 1944 (23.26") and 2001 (27.70").

 

And the beat goes on...

Yup. Been a tropical paradise here. Going to be some nasty fires this next inferno summer.

[TT-SEA]

My son took this pic of my other son today... glad I was not there to see it.

[Deweydog]

Haha. 1985 gets a lot of love around here.

[Omegaraptor]

Haha. 1985 gets a lot of love around here.

IIRC July 1985 was hotter than July 2018.

 

Using the Koppen system 1985 would have been a Dsa (hot summer continental) year if the winter was just a little colder.

[Jesse]

Probably not as many dead trees.

[Jesse]

18z ensembles say my birthday trough still has potential.

[Deweydog]

Lowish thicknesses out there!!

[TigerWoodsLibido]

Down to 38. Will we get to freezing? Hmmmm.

[Kayla]

Not sure how your wife tolerates that... considering that she is always putting on a warmer clothes even in restaurants in the middle of the summer.  

 

If our house drops below 70 there will be hell to pay!

How do you know this???

[Omegaraptor]

Our central heat broke down back in November. Two space heaters, and other than that the house was 55 degrees.

[TT-SEA]

I have my sources.   

 

Actually Matt is the primary source of this information.  

[TigerWoodsLibido]

He has all of our houses bugged actually.

[Jesse]

Wouldn’t surprise me for a minute!

She’s a proponent of it, insists a cooler house is a healthier house. She is constantly wrapped up in a blanket though.

[Esquimalt]

00Z GFS really delays the onset of the precipitation on the 7th/8th.

[Deweydog]

Some buddy’s gonna get cold at some point in January. Book it.

I enforce the 65 degree house here, I hand out blankets and sweatshirts as needed. I am usually wearing shorts.

[MossMan]

With newborn we keep the house at 68 at night and 71 during the day. Without newborn we keep it at 65 at night and 68 when home.

[Deweydog]

We drop it to 62 at bedtime.

[TigerWoodsLibido]

And I'll be the one to make the 69 when in bed joke.

[MossMan]

Yeah...inside Omegaraptor’s house!!

[Esquimalt]

January 69 sure was delicious.

[ShawniganLake]

30F here.

 

66ish inside.

 

Edit. It’s actually 63F in the house. I forgot the backlight on the Davis display adds several degrees.

[Tyler Mode]

68 during the morning and evening, 58 when at work and 58 at night

I met an Uber driver recently who insisted he never, ever turns on the heat. Said he loves being cold, and so does his wife.

 

Crazy dude.

I haven’t met an Uber driver yet that didn’t seem at least a little off. We had one guy in Vegas who left his windshield wipers on intermittent the whole ride last spring when it was 90 with a dew point of 7.
