One More Seriously

Seriously, I forgot to add this yesterday, from the local weather website: Enjoy.

OK, time to brag about our weather mettle in Seattle...

The weather hasn't been too out of the ordinary the past week or so -- with mainly gentle rains under cloudy skies. Highs have been a few degrees either side of normal, schools have opened as usual, and the only road closures have been planned well in advance.

But did you know this recent weather would be considered near-record-breaking in some parts of the United States?

With our morning rains Monday, it marked the seventh-consecutive day with measurable rain in Seattle, with Tuesday likely notching No. 8. Did you know that if it rains 8 days in a row in New York, it'd be their fourth-longest rainy streak in their history? Their record is 12, ours is 35.
