My very favorite day. Days start getting longer now. June 21 not so much and clean sidewalks in Seattle. Boner, I mean bonus.

The six months between the winter and summer solstices seem like an eternity...

Seattle needed the rain. Mother Nature has come to clean off the streets and sidewalks loaded with homeless scat.

It was a frog strangler here yesterday (2"+), near the southern reaches of Puget Sound about 70 miles SSW of Havana on Elliot Bay (Seattle).
The rivers are real high, extreme tide changes, dogs and cats living together....

The climate is changing all the time. Why is that now considered an emergency? Geez.

Liberals complain when there are floods. Liberals complain when there’s drought.

There’s no pleasing them.

I lived in Seattle for 14 years and never heard that.

It’s always darkest before the dawn.

To those not familiar with the region, we Seattleites have a word for this: normal.

Friday also broke a record for measured sunlight in Seattle. The University of Washington recorded just 0.37 million Joules of solar radiation, the lowest level of sun energy measured since the university started counting over the past 20 years.

Maybe God is trying to clean the place up.

Slow news day. But important for those living near rivers and streams affected. Same has happened many times in years past.

Dark, yes, wet yes, rain yes but not now.

Looking at dry and sun next few days.

This evening, in the Seattle area, we had one of the most beautiful sunsets that I have seen in a long time.

At the same time, I question how they can state "record darkness" though it has not has not ended.

What if before dawn (scheduled) the Fat Boy in NK lands a nuke on them?

That would light up their night.
