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
Yeah. That’s a global figure.
it really was a world war. Scary part is it might be a low figure. Includes battles at the poles.
Still, the Nazi Party didn’t die out. War simply isn’t an answer.
There hasn't been much to talk about down this way lately as April was very dry. But that looks to change with our snow totals increasing for tomorrow's storm. Now up to 6" for lake level. Will this be our last snow until next winter? It's looking that way on the long range models. Hopefully everyone scores some wet thunderstorms this summer!
Still a ton of spread in the ensembles. Initially it looks like the frontal band will struggle to make it past Olympia but eventually KSEA could get a decent soaking. Still a few EPS members in the 1” range but I think 0.5” remains the most likely outcome at least for the airport.
I would love at least 0.3” out of this, that will be enough to get everything nice and wet again. The sunnier spots in my yard are starting to look dry.
