Indeed, no heat for you. Take a guess at what the summer will be like in Seattle?

When I mean no heat, I mean no summer like 2012. More like 1983, and 2010 which were wet, and yet above average (also a La Nina analog years)


1983 very wet. Also very warm



April this year was drier, and I don't think this May will be as wet either, but let's wait and see....




Do you see how excessively wet it was? Yet summer was above average. Just not too many upper 90's temps

A typical La Nina? Cooler and wetter than average. Then again I don't care much about what their summer will be like. I care what my summer will be like

88 F with a 71 F DP, predicted high of 92 F today.




50% chance of storms per the NWS, 100% according to WU. WU predicting 1.53" of rain today.

What is your projection for the Ohio Valley area this summer based on the fact that we had few days above 90F last year and massive amounts of precipitation?

I think stormy and muggy unless La Nina really kicks in quick. JMA initiated a month ago shows very dry conditions. I don't know if that will changed when latest 3 month run comes out in a couple of days

No, just a front. Temps will fall to the lower 60's later this week with DP's in the 40's.

A 2010 or 2012 summer would be fine by me, or any summer from the mid-2000s

Oh you mean summers when the PNW didn't have that warm water offshore? Forget about it. That water is not cooling off for years. Sound like a broken record cause I'm sick of seeing it and their stupidly constant positive temp anomalies out there month after month for the last few years. And if we are now back into the next 30 year warm PDO, ugh, not like 2012 for decades.

Your temperatures have been milder. Yesterday stayed under 50°F most of the day
