That means it can be snowing, raining, windy, calm, sunny, dry, cold and warm all within a 20 mile radius... and I'm not kidding. daily I see temp differences of over 20 degrees between home and downtown Seattle... elevation changes, large bodies of water and mountains all help. :) so we don't have to wait five minutes, just drive a few... :) it's funny because it can be raining on one side of a stop light and not on the other... you go off for half an hour in one direction, look up, see stars and open sky, come back and it'll still be raining in the same spot... which just happens to be the hillside I live on. :) it also works that way with the snow... that mile between my place and the valley floor almost always gets snow if there is any. In Seattle today it's 40ish... at home there is still snow and ice on the driveway... had to use 4wd to get out this morning. ;) have Jeep(s), will escape. :) john ---- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** http://wagoneers.com ** ** http://freegift.net ** Snohomish, Washington USA - where Jeeps don't rust, they mold. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2005 15:22:39 -0500 From: "Don Hansen" Subject: Re: xj: Re: boston - sat/sun road trip BUT the ocean's about 38 deg...
