Gummy Posted January 10, 2022 Report Share Posted January 10, 2022 19 minutes ago, Tyler Mode said: Was so nice today with wall to wall sunshine! Great mood boost for most people. Unlike the last few years, this winter so far seems to have a lot more clouds/rainy days. Even SOME sun is nice to see every now and then. My thoughts on a few rainy days in summer are the same. It was great seeing the sun today, mid 40's and blue skies, even though it was short lived and the rain storms back tomorrow. I am not sure if the 8" of snow is worth the trade off for all the clouds and rain in Seattle. I have lived my entire 38 years in this city and I feel like I need a change soon. I could handle the gloom if I were in a more rural setting. The spring and summers are so nice it is just enough to make me say, "it isn't so bad, I can handle this." Then winter comes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, TWL and myself will confirm that the amount of strikes in the So Valley was very sucky.

Geos Posted January 10, 2022 Report Share Posted January 10, 2022 Nice to see one pass open today. Been seeing more semis passing by Eastgate in the last 2 hours. Stevens sounds like a nightmare. Not 50° anymore...in the upper 30s now! 1 Quote Mercer Island, 350 ft 2021-2022: 11.6", 02/21 2020-2021: 15.6" 2019-2020: ~10" 2018-2019 winter snowfall total: 29.5" 2017-2018: 9.0", 2016-2017: 14.0" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still pretty incredible. That snow event was epic. I have a friend who lives in Dryden and he has three feet of snow on the ground. That area is borderline semi arid. 1 Quote Death To Warm Anomalies!
