This, being southeast Alaska, is a cool region; temperatures rarely go above75F or below zeroF. We do get a lot of rain, however, more than 2 inches in a 24 hour period is noteworthy. We simply don't get many extremes of any kind.
This summer has been a strange one. Spring months, from mid-April to early July are typically our driest, sunniest months. But this year, May was an exceptionally rainy month and then our atmosphere dried out and we have had a LOT of SUN since. True, we still have rainy days, even some rainy weeks, but sometimes the sun is so blindingly bright I keep thinking that I'm going to have to break down and get sunglasses. Frankly, I prefer misty, silvery days.

Right now we're in the middle of wind and rain. Supposed to continue until Sunday. I love it. Not so, my dachsie. He doesn't like rain - or snow- falling on his back.
