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
The fog was so thick this morning, cleared by 9am though and its been mostly sunny for hours. Now 83 after a low of 59. Might get two near 90 degree days Mon/Tue.
Have had much hotter graduation days than today. Only 57 and cloudy as the rain has dissipated and moved northeast. Looks like around 1.0” total. Things are lush around here for sure.
No harm in comparing the POV of each and this has been a lackluster campaign all around.
We need some sparks to fly. The dull economy would be a good place to start.
The DFW area is still growing. A lot a disillusioned west coasters. I hate the traffic. Many adapt well, but some try to shame us for our culture. I say join or die, as the colonists said to the British, or just go somewhere else.
