78 minutes of summer

"Living in Seattle is like being married to a beautiful woman
who is sick all the time."

If you define summer as times when the temperature reaches at least 80 degrees, it's only happened in Seattle twice since June 1. On July 2 for 12 minutes, and on scorching July 6, for a whopping 66 minutes. Poor Everett, just north of Seattle has not been above 75 all summer.
This is all according the Scott Sistek's KOMO TV weather blog. Here's what he says about the upcoming (mostly sunny) weekend:

NOAA computer models say there is an 18% chance the heat index will make it feel like 80 degrees on Sunday in Seattle -- and a 1% chance it'll feel like 90.

Are you hot today? If you don't live in the Northwest, this probably sounds like a cool slice of heaven. But we're feeling left out of the party.
