A letter

Dear Global Warming Skeptics,

HUMANS EJECT WAY MORE CO2 INTO THE ATMOSPHERE THAN VOLCANOS, EVEN DURING MAJOR VOLCANO YEARS.

Love,
Cliffy

Warmer than usual weather coming up

But what is "usual" anyway?

PS: our lack of hot weather this summer has been due to a lack of "thermal troughs", when warm air rises creating lower pressure near the ground.

Back on the radio

I'll be back on the radio, starting Sept 2. On KPLU, you know that public radio station that didn't screw me over?

There might be another La Niña next year

Hope not.

Good news

I just saved 15% on my car insurance! Oh, and the new coastal radar was turned on and we have received some of the first images.

See one of them here:

Aurora Borealis Tonight!

It's not just the name of some hip band, there will actually be an aurora around here tonight. There's no cover charge at the door, but you just need to find a place without clouds. Try Eastern Washington, or 3000+ ft up.
