They didn't repave the Physh River Bridge, did they? It made a great
Squid's Leap.

With your Pegaso, that Neah Bay section shouldn't be a problem!

Rain being newsworthy in Seattle is news in itself!

Everyone here freaks when there ISN'T an inch of moss growing on all
exposed surfaces.

Breaking our drought with 5 inches of rain yesterday (Monday) at
Sea-Tac airport wasn't what anyone had in mind, however.

Thought about joining the volunteers sand-bagging this afternoon in
Mt. Vernon, WA, but blew it off. When the river crests at 9' over
flood stage this evening, I think they'll need boats.

Personally, I live on high ground!

That 5" rain was plastered all over the news today. Seems you guys
never experience REAL rain; ie thunderstorms, where mother nature can
dump 5" in little more than an hour. Last Month, nearby Lake Roosevelt
got 10" in 12 hrs from a freak convergence of several regenerating
T-Storms. We only got about 2" here in the Valley of the Sun.

In an article on the net, it was stated that Seattle has a perpetual
drizzle nearly all winter.

Well that ain't so bad. 'Ol Highway One between Stinson Beach and Mill
Valley always looks like that, and "they"expect us to think it's normal.

That's true. Most days, rain is measured in hundreths of an inch.

That what we want you to believe, and our propaganda campaign seems to be
working perfectly. Fact is, this is the best climate I've ever lived in.
Summers kick ass, winters are a breeze compared to the east coast, and even
during the October to December rainy season, there are several weather
patterns during the day to stave off any depression -- hence the term "sun
breaks."
