72/43 spread here. Very nice for late May. Cooler upwelling belt right off our coast is doing its thing.

You  were the one who specifically mentioned 70s for highs there. Pretty clear many places will get much warmer than that on Tuesday. Don't shift the goalposts.

No. These silly little preference debates which I alone instigate more than anyone here by an order of magnitude as part of an ongoing effort to essentially turn this forum into my own private Twitter feed are sooo dumb 😤

OT, but…50.8°F and dropping at 1130AM in *late May*. Thick mist and low cloud deck licking the treetops. HEAVEN. :wub:

Outside enjoying every second of it. How anyone could prefer death ridging to this is beyond me. There’s a reason they don’t call it “life ridging”.

Who calls it 'death ridging'?  That's just a little cynical, isn't it?

D**n, somebody got triggered on here today for absolutely zero reason, shocker... 🤦‍♂️

Who?   Justin?   Yeah.   That was some silly hyperbole.  

I just stated facts... people like what they like.   And debating it is pointless.  Justin made some silly comments about drizzle on Tuesday in my rainforest.  😀

I know, and most everyone else knows this time.

If I said today is Saturday you would say I am wrong.   It's a given.   This is little game you play is just as stupid as preference discussions for 15 years.

That is one eye popping trough early in week two on the 0z GFS.  534 thickness and 850s drop to -2.  That's very hard core for June.  

Meanwhile it dropped to 41 here this morning which is in the top 3 for cold mins this late in the season this century IMBY.  I like how this regime keeps coming back.

Ended up with a 77/38 spread. Beautiful day.

Heading down to Ohio Lake tomorrow. Hoping the clouds hold off from heading into the interior too much. 

Ohop?

Saturday was an absolutely stunning day. Had an opportunity to spend a couple hours at Lincoln Park in West Seattle jogging/exercising. Not too hot, not too cold! Loved it! 

Looks like more of the same for next few days!

We've drove through McCall a couple years ago. Beautiful area. Visited a hot springs not too far from there that was amazing. I think it was called Gold Fork, if I remember right. Worth a visit.

Yeah, Gold Fork is awesome, or was I should say.  It closed last spring because of Covid-19 and still hasn't opened back up.  However there are others in the area that are open.

GFS total cloud fraction was wrong for today. Hoping the same can be said for tomorrow too.

That decaying front offshore still has a decent cloud shield moving inland... even some rain along the NW coast.    It will be falling apart today but the rate at which that happens has been giving the models problems.

First time I’ve ever worn a windbreaker in late May. Wind chills in the low 40s. Couldn’t have asked for better Memorial Day weekend weather. :wub:

Ugh. Hopefully it gets blown apart quickly...Uncovering the boat for the first time since September today!

You have already missed lots of great boating weather this year! 

Are you taking it out today?   We decided to go out tomorrow because it will likely be a little warmer and sunnier than today.
