Reached almost a hundred degree in my area.

Is it already heating up in your town?

 

[Shooter]

already getting into the high 70's and low 80's here in East Texas. seems like just like last year.

Getting any of the fabled rain?

 

[Shooter]

It's starting to get warm here. We were in the high 80s yesterday and we're suppose to hit 90 today. Humidity has been terrible so it feels worse.

That's what I don't like about my area. It's one of the more humid sections of Texas.

Not as bad as Houston, but still pretty bad.

I saw a report, it's raining the mountains of Mexico right over the border.

It's sending the humidity this way, but the rain maybe not.

 

[Shooter]

That's what happens here. The Olympic range isn't large enough to wring all the Pacific moister out of the air. Then it hits the Cascades and drenches us. But 80 miles east of here it's desert because we get it all that's left. Marysville is right in the middle of the Puget Sound convergence zone. Air is funneled through the two ranges from the south through the Columbia river outlet. Another blast comes in from the north through The Straight of Juan De Fuca. They converge just off shore in Puget Sound in the Everett, Marysville area. Sometimes it's a little north and Lynnwood is spared. Sometimes it's a little south and Mt Vernon is spared. But we get drenched every time. It rains more in my town than anywhere else in the Seattle area. And it can suck real bad, but I'll take it over 110 degrees any day.

Is it a drizzle or does it pour?

you think Central Texas is humid, then come to East Texas in the summer after a rain! there have been times at work that by 9:00 am in the morning i was soaking wet from sweating it was so humid! Houston is bad too.

No. You guys have it far worse and I know to stay out of Houston in the summer.

 

[Shooter]

We do, but man it's a ton of rain.

 

[Shooter]

Well most of my area has been flooded out.

Very weird. It happens a lot in Texas, but I've never seen the water stand this long.
