Been absolutely fucking sunny and gorgeous in the Pac NW,.. and freezing.. but not fatally freezing. I love it. I don't even have to twist and turn when walking around to avoid getting sprayed by cars who drive over street puddles, now that they are ice puddles.

I heard California has been teh suck for two weeks, aside from purty snow. Snow level is 2000 ft. in SoCal???!!!

It has rained in the Bay, but a nice rain.

The hills of the East Bay are lush and green, the fog and clouds hug the horizon like...angry cotton wool.

lexington, kentucky has sucked. it has been downright warm-60 degrees or so and raining like a mofo. usually it is at least in the 40s and NOT RAINING. I DO NOT LIVE IN SEATTLE, GOD.

Lexington, Kentucky has more rainfall, both in January and annually, than does Seattle

well pardon me, al roker.

wait. since when is 2 inches more than 5?
get one mathemagician!

That's pretty fascinating, about our average annual rainfall being greater than Seattle's. I wonder if we too have as many days of rainfall leading up to that amount, or if our rain falls in much larger bursts?

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Tuesday, 4 January 2005 21:03 (twenty years ago)

Are the drops fat like beachballs?

― .adam (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 4 January 2005 21:05 (twenty years ago)

oops, I was reading Spokane for January. Nevertheless, Lexington's 44.6 annual beats Seattle's 38.

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Tuesday, 4 January 2005 21:06 (twenty years ago)

No, .adam, but how cool would that be?

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Tuesday, 4 January 2005 21:07 (twenty years ago)

i hate this rain! oh, i looked at the numbers and it appears that they have much drier summers and rainier cold months.

― Emilymv (Emilymv), Tuesday, 4 January 2005 21:09 (twenty years ago)

Seattle is probably 'rainy' - overcast, potentially damp, perhaps some light rain - far more often, especially outside summer (note that summer and even spring have very low precipitation), but rainy doesn't actually produce as much rain. Also, it's a precipitation chart. How much snow do the two cities get, comparatively?

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Tuesday, 4 January 2005 21:12 (twenty years ago)

aha! snow! i wish we had snow right now. i am weather igonorant, but i am pretty sure we get more here than they do in seattle.

oh also, outside my office window is a lady changing a flat tire in the rain while someone, presumably her lifemate, watches and smokes a cigarette. chivalry is officially dead. she weighs roughly 90 pounds and actually is soaking wet.

― Emilymv (Emilymv), Tuesday, 4 January 2005 21:15 (twenty years ago)

Lexington gets much more snow than Seattle, but Seattle's snow is concentrated in its high precipitation months, further reducing its rainfall, it would seem

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Tuesday, 4 January 2005 21:17 (twenty years ago)

She weighs 90 pounds...is it HOLLY?

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Tuesday, 4 January 2005 21:19 (twenty years ago)

get one mathemagician!

OH MY GOD
