Monday, May 13, 2013 12:18 P.M. I’m a huge fan of streaks, particularly of sports and weather streaks. Whether it’s Brett Favre’s streak of 321 consecutive games started or Seattle’s recent streak of 48 dry days this past summer. Speaking of that dry streak we had, I was super frustrated when I learned that 0.01 […]

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 […]

Rainfall Totals From the Last Few Storms
Monday, April 8, 2013 1:02 P.M. April is known for “showers and sunbreaks,” which might as well become a trademarked phrase around here since it is probably the most commonly mentioned phrase in Seattle, meteorological or otherwise. Imagine how rich the original creator of that phrase would be if news stations and the National Weather […]
