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
Over 1.2" rain fell yesterday at KDWU! (Mostly from a single t'storm that occurred from 10pm to midnight)
72/64 was the hi/low. Today might feature a longer break between the precipitation, sun is already out and may fix up a more primed environment for storms. Overall nicer Spring days than we had late last week, the upstairs is a bit less stuffy now.
The official H/L yesterday was 78/53 there was 0.15” of rainfall the sun was out 34% of the possible time. The highest wind gust was 23 MPH out of the W. For today the average H/L is 66/45 the record high of 89 was set in 1959 the record low of 28 was set in 1983. The most rainfall of 1.73” fell in 1976 the most snowfall of 0.3” fell in 1954. Last year the H/L was 73/46.
The overnight low here in MBY was 53 there was 0.07” of rainfall. The current temperature is 53 with cloudy skies.
