Seattle Seasons

For those of you in the rest of the world, I thought it might be useful to explain the seasons here in Seattle.

Since they are cyclical, it really doesn't matter where we enter the cycle of the seasons.  So arbitrarily, I choose Summer as the entry point (because it is my favorite):

Summer

• July
• August
• September

Fall

• October

Winter

(such as it is in Seattle anyway)

• November
• December
• January

Spring

• February

Woebegone

Where every day is 10 degrees below average

• March
• April
• May
• June

So, here we are in the second month of Woebegone, with near-record low temperatures and having just come thru a major winter storm, with another bearing down on us for tomorrow. Quite a come-down after Spring. But we Seattlites are tough and are used to it.

Unfortunately.
