What a change a month makes! Back on the 10th and 13th of March, we had two powerful windstorms roll through the area, with the one on the 10th causing lots of damage to the Northern Interior and creating a lot of coastal flooding and the one on the 13th making my last day of […]
Another Beautiful Week On Tap
Wow, what a change in weather we have had! From the wettest winter on record to two consecutive weeks with temperatures above 70 degrees! Our transition from autumn to winter is swift, but our transition from winter to spring usually takes a little bit more time. It certainly hasn’t taken much time so far! Last […]
Another Heat Record Bites The Dust/Thoughts on The Blob
Thursday, October 1, 2015 4:08 p.m. At Sea-Tac, the last time we had a month that was cooler than average for that month was February 2014. Since then, 20 months have passed, with 19 consecutive months being warmer than normal. That’s right… this September was the first colder than normal month since February 2014. We’ve […]
Our “Extremely Warm” Wave
Monday, July 14, 2014 11:13 a.m. We are in the midst of a period of extremely warm weather. Highs have been in the upper 80s for an extremely long time, and although I can’t comment on meteorological figures since I have had very limited access to the interwebs (and outside world altogether) at the summer […]
Record Heat for May Day, and a Scorcher for the Oregon Coast.
Thursday, May 1, 2014 9:45 p.m. I’ve actually got some free time on my hand before I get back to doing the last 3/10ths of my linear algebra assignment. So I thought I’d post a blog, because I haven’t posted for a long time. A word of advice… don’t take AMATH 352 at the UW […]
A Record Heat Wave, but only for Minimums
Thursday, August 29, 2013 2:16 p.m. Alright, I have to give credit where credit is due. Both Scott Sistek and Cliff Mass, my two favorite weather bloggers in the Pacific Northwest, blogged here and here about how we have seen record nighttime/early morning warmth as of late. These blogs are far better than mine… I suggest […]
A Change for the Cooler
Monday, May 20, 2013 ~11:00 A.M. It’s no surprise that the first half of May has been extraordinarily warm. I came across a funny picture and caption circulating around the internet; it is in the same format as a meme you’d find on Reddit, but the picture used has not widely been used. At least […]
Dreadfully Hot
Friday, May 10, 2013 1:42 A.M. Good morning everybody! The weather outside today is wonderful… much better than that dreadful weather we had Monday. “Dreadful?,” you might ask? Dreadful. At least for me. At some time during autumn 2012, I decided that I was no longer going to wear shorts (excepting formal occasions, like weddings […]
Sea-Level Snow Looking Pretty Likely
Tuesday, January 10, 201212:48 P.M. Photo Credit: Alistair Grant I’m actually taking a class that discusses the current weather over the world once every week, so I thought I’d go ahead and post my notes on my blog! Of course, it will be more of a summary/story of my notes, because my notes are pretty […]
Well into Summer
Thursday, July 15, 2010 9:52 A.M. It’s hard to believe that only a few weeks ago we were wondering if we were ever going to reach 75 degrees for a high. I, for one, was hoping for us to stay at 74 for the rest of the summer. In other words, have a nice, comfortable […]
