TT-SEA Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Tim needs to read this. Pretty much what everyone (well at least all the rational people here) have been saying this summer. I did read this earlier this afternoon... and agreed. And wrote a post afterwards stating just that. This summer been pretty normal overall. The mid-June to mid-July period was much cloudier than normal out here... with many days in that period not clearing at all and sometimes actually getting darker in the afternoon. But even just 4 or 5 more days with partial afternoon sun in that month-long timeframe would have made it a much more typical cloudy period. The amount of sun and rain and cloudy periods since the middle of July has been much more typical of summer as well. And the first half of June was quite sunny and dry. So it averages out to around normal. The nights have been generally warmer than normal... and the high temp departures have been a little below normal. Again... fairly close to averaging out. Here is the overall temperature departure for the last 60 days: Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Oh, I guess that’s one of the pitfalls of having you on ignore. Although it’s worth it for missing a bunch of whining and trolling in between the meaningful posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Although before we get TOO excited, just because a met with name recognition posted it it doesn’t necessarily make it the gospel. There have been plenty of posts from Cliff Mass that I have taken up issue with since I think he is presenting a skewed look at the data based on his own personal biases.

TT-SEA Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Here’s the killshot: Not really... it averages out. I said that. The persistence from mid-June to mid-July sucked. It was the cloudiest summer period I can ever remember here. But it averages out over a longer period of time. And it still sucked at the time. Statistically a fairly normal summer.

I did point it out... but 90% of the discussion about it was debating the statistical significance and not just endless complaining. Go back and look. Its all there for you to read. I also praised the sunny days in that month-long period way more than normal. Here is an example during that period... Today was literally perfect. A few morning clouds... a few decorative cumulus this afternoon... some high clouds at sunset. High temperature in the upper 70s. Dewpoint around 50. Perfect for yard work this morning... perfect for the boat and water activities this afternoon... perfect for a late dinner outside on the patio. If you want to encapsulate my definition of summer bliss... it was today. Mark it down.
