Chilly to Hot In Your Neck Of The Woods Already?

All this talk of heat and humidity makes me happy that I had to put on a sweatshirt and a jacket for my walk this afternoon :partying_face:

:laughing:

75°F/24°C or so here in Seattle. The city parks are crowded.

A little hotter across the east side of the state and hotter in Portland and down the Willamette Valley.

Fire danger listed as high in a few areas. Like Bushmaster said: Looks like a bad year coming for fires in the Pacific Northwest.

Over here it keeps fluctuating between wonderfully fresh 21-31C almost everyday according to forecast, with some nice crisp mornings that make me doubt that low estimate. Just got out of an early drought spell that was going on since mid-March, so finally we can breathe a little easier without hugging a water bottle all day.

All this jacket/sweatshirt talk of you lot is making me sweat already :smiley: Over here it’s all about t-shirts and shorts unless I’m going to a more formal appointment like a visit to the dental clinic.

It's about perfect here now but.....I can't get the garden in fast enough....and I'm buying another air filterer thing.

31F here. Was camping at 70 degrees like a couple weeks ago.

It's 21 C° now so nice in shade now. Way more people out and about now. Seems most folks are in and/or near parks. Saw a downed tree on the local trails. Strange that only one tree fell but the others are still standing?

Was this at Mundy park?

73 degrees F and you are starting to sweat? That’s what you get when you are acclimated to arctic weather in the frozen north. I used to live in the Midwest so well know the agony of waiting for Spring to really arrive. March was the cruelest month in WI, MI, and IL. We can always tell the new transplants from the north. They are the people using our HOA pool in March. The rest of us wait until it gets in the 90s.

Spring arrives in late February or early March here. We have already had an unusual spell of weather when it reached into the mid-90s but not accompanied by the high humidity of the coastal regions. Fortunately it dropped back into high temperatures in the 70s and low 80s for about the past two weeks. I’m not used to having to un-mothball the evaporative cooler that serves as my primary AC unit in early March. It’s the perfect time of year for cycling and other outdoor activities - not too hot and not too cool.

Hey yeah Mundy park. :slight_smile: How you know? Been there before? :smiley: That park is great. Rare plants and wildlife inside. Plus the cougars and bears prowling around here and there. :smiley:

Kinda pic heavy post. Lots of yellow/green kinda plants. They seem to be everywhere. Plus some ferns too. Good place to go to unwind and just be with nature. But watch out for Cougars and Black Bears! Thinking about going tru at night now! Hmmm maybe some flashlight beam shots!

I was out there last weekend and walked past that very tree and wondered why a single tree fell in the forest

Was outside in just a t-shirt on Sat. high 60’s, started snowing yesterday and was 25F when I got up this morning.

Wow I thought I was the only BLF member in this part of town.:stuck_out_tongue: I’ll have to keep an eye out for the person with the cool flashlight when I’m on the trails again. :smiley:

Did anyone hear it?

I hope the person who heard it not under tree! :smiley:

Wow, very cool hike. Thanks for sharing. Makes me want to get up off my lazy arse and do some exploring myself. :slight_smile:
Ever fish those lakes? Curious what species of fish you have in your part of the world.

I bet the Northern Pike get huge there with all those smaller species to feed upon.

Try for Baguio City. Today’s high 78, low 64. Sweet.

got our first hail of the year.
typical oscillating springtime.
shiver/sweat/repeat.
