It’s June in Seattle, and things are getting a little desperate. We only had six hours over 70 degrees from the start of the year through May. We received over an inch of rain in the first five days of the month. Only the bravest, numbest, dyed-in-the-wool PNWers have dared to break out their shorts and Tevas.

Seattle’s numbers of hours at or above 70°F through May 29th over the past few years:
2015: 77
2016: 144
2017: 85
2018: 107
2019: 103
2020: 85
2021: 80
and, (drum roll), 2022: 5#wawx
