Omegaraptor Posted August 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2019 Sure. And you'd think it would be pretty easy for you to acknowledge your microclimate will often be cloudier/wetter than other places in King County, sometimes for extended periods. That was clearly the case from mid June to mid July. Even though, YES, it was definitely an unusually cloudy first couple weeks of July for the whole area.Dreariness index.

Sometimes it’s going to be cloudier than normal. For example, late June and early July. Sometimes, it’s also going to be sunnier than normal.

GHweatherChris Posted August 1, 2019 Report Share Posted August 1, 2019 It was not a solid month of cloudiness/rain here either. But close to it. A week or two straight of crap is par for the course here in the summer. Not a month. It was quite unusual even for this area. You do realize that even the highest peaks of the Cascades get a decent amount of sun in the summer. Even Mount Rainier is visible and in the sun frequently in the summer. You guys act like I live at 12,000 feet in northern Alaska or in Siberia somewhere. So now it wasnt a whole month as you have repeated over and over? I am so tired of the lies, it was either a whole month or it wasn't, get with it Tim 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CulverJosh Posted August 1, 2019 Report Share Posted August 1, 2019 I don't think paying out of state tuition is ever worth it. I am a college grad, but admittedly the cost of college rises every year, while the value of a degree continues to decline. If you do not have a chosen career you are passionate about, then spend as little money as possible. These days you can end up getting a better job/making more money, by going to a trade school and spending a fraction of what college costs.Exactly!! College, especially universities, are nothing but snobby indoctrination societies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
