Phil Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 It feels like forever since there has been a sunrise here. I think the last time there was sun in the early morning was on 6/13. Tuesday has a possibility to break the streak. But a new streak will probably start the next day. So much for enjoying the longest days of the year.This post makes no sense. Why do you need the Sun blasting at 5AM? It still rises even if it’s behind clouds. The majority of summer days here start out with low level clouds for the first 30-45 minutes as well, due to boundary layer moisture. Rare to get a clean sunrise.

TT-SEA Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 2010 Tim? It has been a 2010ish period lately. Hopefully we start to break out of it now. A 2-week stretch of gloomy weather in June is not too unusual here. But its one of least favorite aspects of this climate. I dislike it more than anything that happens in the winter.

Normal high is 73 right now. Even upper 60s and sunshine would be great. Don't care about the temp as long as there is some sun. It was gloomy and 58 here today. It is what it is though. Can't change the weather.

Jesse Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 Nice evening. Already down to 56 after a high of 70. I could live with this weather being the default all summer.

High Desert Mat? Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 Love reading for the debates. Some good, some really bad. I for one live for the lightning bugs to light up the sky here in Redmond every summer. It’s almost daylight when they really start up. Another note is that the mosquitoes here are really impressive compared to the east coast as well. I’m thinking of moving east of the Rockies just to escape them so I can get some of my blood back.

TT-SEA Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 00Z ECMWF has definitely locked in on the more troughy solution for next weekend. Still looks pretty decent on the surface maps though because the trough is just offshore... basically dry with highs in the 70s.
