The Seattle area just got Number One on another list -- from
Cliff Mass:
Secret Revealed: The Northwest Has the Best Summer in the Nation. But Why?
The secret is out.
A few days ago, a well known ratings group found Seattle to be the NUMBER ONE city in the U.S. for pleasant summer weather, while Portland followed in second place. Even major newspapers like the Los Angeles Times seem to agree. A table from the authoritative Sperling report says it all (see below). With comfortable average highs in the mid-70s, sleep-friendly lows in the lower fifties, and low dew points and relative humidities, Seattle is meteorological heaven during the summer months.
Cliff then goes on to list eleven reasons why this is so. Don't tell anyone though -- we want to keep it a secret... Just remember -- it rains a lot!
