Hopefully the thunderstorms work out on Sunday. Some other mentions for top thunderstorms I’ve seen in my lifetime would be June 2008, July 2011 (IIRC was in sequim), July 2012, September 2013, May 2017, May 2020, and August 2022.
My Everett family is whining a bit on Facebook but not to the extent they were in 2022.
I told them they’ll be grateful for their weather when they travel here for my sister’s wedding on June 22nd. The pattern is looking increasingly ugly for us starting the 2nd half of the month.
Its all balanced out in the big picture. But as I said... most people have a recency bias and recently it has been consistently wet and chilly. I think most people would prefer to get to normal with more rapidly alternating patterns. But it seems like we usually run in long streaks at this time of year so if you ask at the end of a cold/wet streak like now... people will say its been unusually gloomy. Its pretty simple to understand.
