If the city is destroyed then I guess it'll help put out the extent of the fires but the desolation will be unprecedented if we go HAM on 90F+ for 3+ months. I think the fire crews will be a lot more careful this time instead of the stupid modern science of 'letting it burn out naturally'. We had a small fire near Drakes Crossing earlier this spring and they didn't let that one go. Within hours it (The fire) was done. No more being bossed by environmentalists of 'It has to burn naturrrrrrraaaaally!" 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted May 28, 2021 Report Share Posted May 28, 2021 8 hours ago, TT-SEA said: Normal high today in the Seattle area is in the upper 60s. It was in the 50s in most places. Today was remarkably cool and wet for late May. Today was statistically as normal as a day around 80. Likewise we could have a high in the mid-50s on Sunday. Would be the coolest high on record for the date. I’m going to be spending a lot of time outside, rain or shine.

Just 3 days ago they announced that if you’re vaccinated you don’t have to wear a mask...employees or customers. However there’s basically no enforcement of it I know quite a few employees who haven’t been vaccinated just not wearing them and I’m sure many customers aren’t vaccinated either. Probably 4 or 5 out of 10 people the last few days at my work have actually been wearing masks. It feels so unnatural seeing unmasked people walking in the store after the last ~14 months.

And all the 12Z runs out so far show a very large trough diving down into the PNW later next week.
