Supposed to be clear and warm for most of the week. Hopefully the wildfire smoke will stay away.

It’s been overcast for more than a week with the 30% chance of showers but when not raining it’s the threat of showers.
This has pretty much been my “ viewing forecast “ :oops:

The TV weather man said NC was the coldest place in the nation this morning.

I don't know if that's true, but it's 52F with rain.

Mid-70s, dropping to mid-60s, then back up to the mid-70s for our daytime highs over the next ten days, partly cloudy skies. 50s overnight throughout the period.

After the coldest, wettest winter in decades, we may end up with a mild summer this year, as normally the A/C would already be running, by now.

Smoke and haze just like everyone else in the Eastern US and Canada.
Air quality was Code "Purple" on Wednesday. I didn't know that was even a thing.

No clouds this morning, but 32 micrograms/cubic meter of smoke particles is enough to obliterate any stars here. It’s starting to look like summer is becoming the worst season to observe - smoke, bugs, humidity, and short nights. 🙁

49 Fahrenheit this morning here in northwestern Washington. Close to a record low for this time of year. At least that's what Microsoft is telling me on my news feed.

24°C (78°F ish) here and it's been nice for a couple of weeks. It's not a record but it's not very common. This morning going to work was thunder and lightening and torrential rain then it was nice all day!

63F and raining for most of the day.
We've only had 0.1" inches of rain so far this month so I'll take what I can get.

66F, 19C for the high, the heat will probably be on overnight.
Is it really Summer?

Rain for the last 4 days, supposed to rain for another 3-4 days, this should help the mosquitos propagate.

Lovely weather for mosquito families 😁

My driveway is under water, the creek has been over flowing for days now.

They are saying Saturday maybe nice, but then rain through next Thursday. Yuck!
