After living in Maple Valley for a couple years, I still have a piece of WA in me. I love my home here and being closer to family.
However, part of me wakes up wanting a misty day, cooler temps, towering trees and being close to some of my good friends in MV.
So when I check the weather and news online I make a quick click over to Seattle too just to see what is going on there too. I know. It is weird. To check news and weather in a place I don't even live. But part of my heart and who I am is still there. Bizarre and quirky but me.
If weather casts were like rock, paper, scissors, then Utah would win almost always. But lately, Seattle's milder temps definitely cut through the inversion and freezing weather we've been having.
KSL WEATHER (SLC) today:
Brrr! VERY cold air this morning along the Wasatch Front and across the state. Well below zero in many high elevation valleys this morning, and near zero in the lower valleys. A cold stretch like this in SLC has not been felt in several years. (SEVERAL YEARS!!!) Near 15 for the high today.
Thermometer in truck this morning read 1. Last week -4.
In Seattle kids have late starts or missed days because of a bit of snow. Here school is rarely missed. Almost never. But here, the kids have had indoor recess all but one day since going back after the holidays. On the one day out, Cayleb slipped on ice and banged up his wrist.
KOMO WEATHER (Seattle) today:
It's another cold, frosty start to our day -- mainly in the South Sound with temperatures in the upper teens and low 20s. Across Seattle and north into Everett and throughout the North Sound, it's in the low 30s -- nonetheless, chilly temperatures to start the day.
Seriously low 30s are sounding like beach weather!
