I read once that the smog from California would be passing over much of the country on the weekends and caused more rain then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat Brules Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Friday is when all the California State politicians take a “cleanse,” purging themselves, in preparation for the big weekend when they bow West, to their gods . Then, the regular West-to-East ocean breezes spreads the resulting foul cloud, blowing it out of the State. (This ritualistic process gives new meaning to the “term”.) And, that’s also why I live on the Central Coast. Cat Brules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seattle doesn't lead the nation in actual rainfall totals, but in the number of cloudy/drizzly days each year. You guys in Nashville get it all at once, then it's sunny for a month.

Sedalia Dave Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 In the pacific north west where you are standing makes a huge difference in the amount of rain you get. When I was stationed there moving just a mile one way or the other could double or halve the rain you received. Even the maps below fail to capture the minutia of how the mountains impact rain fall totals. What Is The Olympic Rain Shadow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixgun Sheridan Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Yup, if you're up against the west slopes of the mountains you'll get dumped on. East slope people live in a relative desert. It's amazing to cross over wet, forested Stevens Pass when headed east and suddenly be driving into a landscape that looks more like Arizona than Washington. The politics completely change as well. Nearly all of our leftist anti-gun loons live on the wet, west side of the state. East of the Cascades it's pro-2A country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
