We here in Seattle know about heat waves. At 6:30 p.m. today it is a blistering 71 degrees, down from a high of 72.

And it hasn't rained since yesterday.
Go for a walk.
....rejoicing in the fullness thereof....

So you are quite clearly telling me to move to Seattle, then.  Message received!
be seeing you...

Today it was only 106 in the shade. It's a cool 95 at 9 PM.  ;) ;D

Not really; it's just sometimes an advantage to live where it is cool and rainy all the time. One of the less-successful tv series of the 1960s was a Western/comedy called "Here Come The Brides", based on an 1880s experiment in racist eugenics sponsored by a guy named Asa Mercer. The theme song included a line, "The sky's the bluest blue in Seattle...", which was... er... innaccurate, to say the least.

Someday the sun will shine, and we will all go hide.

Getting on toward noon, it's a sweltering 60 degrees, and the rain has stopped for the moment.

OMG!

It hasn't rained since this morning; the clouds parted and the Firey Ball In The Sky has driven the temperature up to 72 degrees! We are hiding.

Need to do your math again, SWP. 72 degrees F is about 22 degrees C.

it's just TOTALLY INCREDIBLY AWESOME to live where it is cool and rainy all the time.

Fixed that for you.  By which I mean, I have edited your remark to reflect my own feelings.  Those feelings being particularly amplified by the fact that at the moment here it's in the 80's...IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT.  I think we hit 100 during the day, or so close that it doesn't really make a difference.  Tomorrow is projected to be more of the same, so I think I'll spend some time in frigid theaters watching whatever "Schlockbusters" are showing.

Besides, what did the Sun ever do for anyone anyway?
be seeing you...

The University of Washington maintains a weather station in North Seattle that reports conditions by the minute. So far this year we have had 78 minutes during which the temperature was 80 degrees or higher. That 78 minutes was spread over two days in June.

Went to the beach this weekend for the first time in years (despite living within 10 miles my entire life.)  Water temp was a cool 91F. And I burned my feet on the sand.

It'll probably be a few more years before I go back, if ever.

Yesterday the sun shone, and it got up to 80 for a few minutes, but today it's back in the 60s and raining on and off.
