Six months of the year here in central California they are right on the button. "Hot and dry". Think it has been years since we had a good summer thunderstorm. Our last rains are generally this time of year, then it is dry and hot till October or November. On the other hand, my bro lives not so far from you, south of Puget sound, on the Pacific coast. Westport by Aberdeen. He has a few nice days in the summer. Just a handful though. Floods, rain, hail, 100 mph winds, snow, ice. Along about July that will sound good to me. GeoB
