Portland had only 3 entirely sunny days between the spring equinox (March 20) and the summer solstice (June 21). Wow, no wonder the moss was growing like gangbusters! Of course, we didd have a few of our partly cloudy, partly sunny days.
By June 12, we already had more rain than any entire month of June on record. (Oregon weather record keeping began in 1890.) This unusually cool wet weather may be related to the eruptions of Icelandic volcanoes which closed airports in Europe.
"Whoever said sunshine brings you happiness has clearly never danced in the rain."
