Seattle is renown for its constant drizzle and absolute lack of sunshine for most of the year. But from late-June through Halloween, it boasts sunny days and 70 degree weather, and is, for all outdoors-related purposes, paradise.
I think we had an unusually dark and cold winter this year that lasted through March, but about two weeks ago, the blanket of clouds openned up and we got our first taste of summer. And as expected, the weather turned back into crap about a little over a week ago. I haven't lived here that long, but I've come to know Seattlites as laid back, easy going people, but this cold/rain snap appears to have broken everyone's spirit.
Honking in traffic.
Angry pedestrians waving fists.
Coworkers snapping (at each other, at shuttle/bus drivers, at receptionists).
Lifetime Seattlites openly questioning whether they should finally give it up.
Midwesterners swearing.
