Thanks BBH, I needed some "fun in the sun".

I thought we could use some sun around here too. I wish I were right there with those pups. IT IS 10 DEGREES!!!!!!!!!!

Yup! Watching those pups helped to thaw a bit.
I think on my side of the sound, it might be a couple degrees colder. We are about 10 miles away from the water, between Puyallup and Spanaway, up on a hill. I'm just glad we don't still live in Olympia area it's only 4-bbbbrrrrrrr

Hi Old fashioned, I didn't know you were in WA, or did I forget?

I was born and raised here and the last few winters have surely been "different". One of the strangest weather happenings I remember was an ice storm the day after christmas about 12-15 years ago. It was beautifully freaky-if that's even a real term, but not as cold as it is now. go figure!

What gives with this crazy weather. I have only been here a little over a year and, um the realtor told me that you have lovely maritime weather, and that I would only need to layer my warm clothes in the winter. Yeah RIGHT!! This has been a crazy year for sure! Crazy summer heat too.

I do love this state of yours though, LOVE IT!!!!

Hate to say it, but she was just trying to sell ya and make a buck. Although I will say a more "normal" winter wouldn't be so bad, it's just that lately normal is out, weird is in. And as for summer, just be thankful you've missed the really hot and droughty ones. This state does have alot of wildfires in spring/summer/fall, mostly on the east side since it's so much drier, less populated etc. Usually started by lightening, sometimes carelessness. A few years ago we did have a very dry year and a few wildfires on this side of mountains. That's really dangerous because of all the trees/green/fuel and too many people at risk.

People from out of state always think we're just rain, rain, rain. But in truth other places are wetter than us. Although ya shoulda been here during the 100 year flood when it never stopped raining. People are shocked to discover just how hot/cold/dry it can get.

Hee hee, I was already sold on this place. To this day I still think it is the most wonderful place in the world. I have no desire to travel anymore. I'm completely smitten.

Houston (where I'm from) gets more rain than Seattle. A "gloomy" gray sky does not scare me...I am totally OVER the sun, it has been an inch from my face for 35 years. I'm SUNNED out!

I'll be aware of the fires tho, that does scare me. I've delt with many brush fires back when I lived in North TX. I have 3 horses and a few sheep, chickens etc., pretty hard to evacuate them all.

BUT NO MORE HURRICANES!!!!
