What the hell is going on in the Pacific NW? It's June and I'm freezing my ass off! It snowed two feet in the passes over the weekend. We're experiencing the coldest weather in 95 years (or so I've heard) and right now it's warmer (on average) in Siberia than it is in Seattle! Record heat every where else in the country, record lows here!
I know it's technically not summer yet, but come on! And those weather men lie out their asses every day. Trying to give us all hope by saying on Monday that it will be nice by Wednesday! Sunshine my ass!
Personally I'm itching for summer, so I can go hiking and not fear getting caught in a blizzard!
Your thought?

It's a la niña year, so it's going to be cold.
It sucks, because it was only sunny monday - friday last summer... so I feel like I NEVER got a summer last year...
It's been winter for 18 months for me :(

I know how you feel. Last summer and the summer before I was in Alaska, so I've been living in perpetual winter since 2006. In 2005 I was pregnant and it was hot as a mother fucker, so I didn't do much. The summer before, was my "wasted" summer where I was pretty much stoned all summer and didn't do anything! So, as a result of my stupidity I haven't had a summer since 2003. I've got all my camping gear out, organized it, inventoried it, and it's ready to go...

no really, I grew up so much in the outdoors around here, i don't let the grey weather dampen my summer fun.
ok so I did cancel the wild waves season pass idea....but you can bet i'll be out in the woods hiking & camping almost every weekend.
bummed this is a scout weekend at camp & not a hiking weekend. should be nice this weekend.

I'm going to have to, we have a party coming up in little more than a week and last I heard there was snow just a few miles away from our site! We actually went camping in Eastern Washington a couple of weeks ago, which was great.. an adventure like all camping up here!

im in heaven. i love this weather.
Oh and Kat, I remember that too. I was working for frito lay last summer and it would be really hot and nice all week and I would be really sad because I had a few tourist towns on my route. When the weather is nice everyone from Seattle comes to look at the scummy ass beaches over here. But then, by the grace of xenu (or something), it would get all cold and rainy almost every weekend. It was rad!

I don't trust the "weather" people anymore. They've been saying for weeks that, if we just hold out for a couple more days it will be close to 70. LIES ALL LIES!

Hmm... I"m still skeptical, knowing my luck it will be gorgeous in Tacoma and shit in Seattle. Crossing my fingers for nice weather this weekend, so we can actually play outside. The months of cold shitty weather, makes me want to argue.

Lol. I'm STILL trying to get rid of my tan lines from my wet suit. We went out on our wave runners about a month ago, and I got tan lines from hell.
Even if it was cold, I'm sure it felt great to get out there. When I'm back from Vegas, we'll be doing the same. I'm jealous for now.

I just got her out of the shop. I had to take it in because one of the engine compartment latches broke when I jumped a wake like 3 FEET out of the water!!!!
But ya, I'm just stoked to be out again. It's hella cold though once you get around 60mph lol. :(
