Gorgeous sunset from Mt Tabor park. Lots of big, downed trees on the north and east side of the park from our ARCTIC WINDS three weeks ago. But honestly the damage wasn’t quite as bad as I feared. I guess the historic shelter took a pretty good hit but that part of the park was cordoned off.
I was intrigued so I looked up the average high and low temperatures across WA for August of 1899. Olga's average low of 45F is pretty impressive as it's about 4 degrees colder than anything we've seen in the last 50 years. The fact it's so much colder than every other location on the west side does make me wonder if there was an error with the thermometer at that time or maybe it was just incredible cold winds blowing off the straight.
The Seattle average high for the month was almost 10 d
I missed the heavy rains that fell last night just to my north where up to 3"+ fell up in Lake county. It's a raw, windy, cloudy morning with a temp in the low 50's. Great day to catch up on some sleep! Going to be one of those lazy days.
The official H/L yesterday at Grand Rapids was 80/57 there was 0.15” of rainfall the sun was out 60% of the time. The peak wind gust was 32 MPH out of the W. For today the average H/L is 69/48 the record high of 89 was set in 1982 the record low of 31 was set in 1973. Last year the H/L was 65/48.
The overnight low here in MBY was 58 and with cloudy skies that is the current temperature.
Not known for its activity, Ibu woke up. More cooling ash into the atmosphere.
