We have clear skies, light breezes, and very warm temperatures.  It’s warm enough to have the AC back on but it got a rest the past three days.  I had my window open last night and actually got cold.  Lows fell to […]

September is here!  September 1 marks the beginning of meteorological fall in the Northern Hemisphere.  Of course, that’s not exactly how Pacific Northwest weather works.  In reality, early-mid September often fe […]

Like many places in the Western United States during summer of 2022, Salt Lake City has been tying old records and setting new ones. Earlier this summer, Salt Lake City International Airport recorded a high of […]

Today turned out to be a very pleasant late summer day.  It is sunny, winds are light, and the humidity is low.   It’s just a nice day to spend outdoors doing something because we won’t be having many more of th […]

Yesterday was chilly and cloudy.  We were supposed to see the sun late in the day, but it never happened.  Today we have more of the same, and temperatures will still be on the cooler side.  Once again, they ar […]

The weather is certainly different from what was originally predicted.  We have sprinkles this morning and cloudy skies.  The temps are also cooler than what was supposed to be, but that’s not unusual for M […]

This Labor Day Weekend has been pretty nice weather-wise.  Yesterday was hot with highs reaching into the upper 80s.  Thunderstorms developed late in the day, and just seemed to hang around without much m […]

Although the weather service considers today as the first day of autumn, our weather seems more like mid July.  Temps are in the mid 80s, and light breezes  make it feel even hotter.  It sounds like we’ll have a […]

The winds are a bit strong today but that helps keep the temperatures at a comfortable level.  I don’t have the AC on today because of the nice breeze blowing through my house.  Even though it is quite warm, i […]

Summer 2022 is one that Pacific Northwest seasonal forecasters would like to have back. On the heels of a very wet and cool spring, and with La Nina conditions persisting in the Tropical Pacific, forecasters […]

The storms that rolled through southern Michigan yesterday certainly left their mark.  Fortunately, my area was spared from much of the damage, but other areas, including Detroit weren’t as lucky.  My daughter l […]

A building ridge of high pressure this week is forecast to bring a late-season heatwave to the Pacific Northwest. This has prompted the National Weather Service in Pendleton to issue a heat advisory from 11:00 to […]

We were promised rain . . . . a lot of rain yesterday, and I think everyone got it but us.  There was only 0.06″ in my gauge this morning while other stations were reporting anywhere from half an inch to almost […]

Our morning began with clear skies, but now we have clouds.  Radar is showing rain approaching from the west but most shouldn’t affect us until tomorrow.  There is a chance that some severe storms could m […]

Our great late summer weather continues.  Temperatures today will be in the normal range and dry conditions will prevail.  There is no rain in the forecast until tomorrow night and Monday, so most of the weekend w […]

Today has been warm and it has threatened to rain, but we only have had a few sprinkles so far.  Radar looks promising but most of the rain seems to fall apart before reaching us.  We could use some rain, and I […]

Today will be very summer-like, probably one of the few that we have left.  Highs are expected to reach the mid 80s and we should see plenty of sun.  Our last summer holiday is only a week away and I hope that i […]

I love this weather.  Evenings, nights and early mornings are quite humid, but the afternoons are comfortable.  Rain is spotty at best, and temperatures are perfect.  I haven’t had to turn the AC on until the af […]

Yesterday was quite nice  but we did have a few sprinkles of rain in the afternoon.  There were no big storms, just a few popup thundershowers and most didn’t amount to much.  Today has been cloudy so far with a […]

Yesterday was a rather strange day with popup showers and thunderstorms.  Through the day, we heard plenty of distant thunder but we only had one shower which dropped 0.06″ of rain in the afternoon.  Then during t […]
