About the Weather
by J.D. Roth
It is June 6th, just two weeks from the start of summer. Here are the current weather conditions:
- The temperature is 10 degrees centigrade (or 50 degrees fahrenheit for those of you in Oregon City).
- The wind is from the south at 18 miles per hour, with gusts up to 28 miles per hour.
- The sky is completely overcast. It looks like a winter’s day at the Oregon coast.
- There’s a 90% chance of precipitation. Translation: it’s going to rain off-and-on today. Mostly on.
What I’m trying to say is that it feels like November, not June. I am cold. I am sick of the rain. It’s bad news when even life-long Oregonians are frustrated by the weather.
