So how long will this keep up? would you believe possibly for the next two weeks! However there will be a few interruptions and that could come in the form of lowland snows and even a little ice. Exactly how much sunshine you can get out of this pattern is contingent on how much moisture is around, and with all the rain we've had of late and of course, the proximity to the ocean and Puget Sound, despite all this high pressure, and with inversions so frequent with this type of set up and not to mention low sun angle which makes it even more of a chore to burn off the low clouds and fog the sun may still not shine as much as you wish, but still, this beats days of rain and inclement weather that's so prevalent this time of year.

This is a subjective graphic, with no rigorous methodology based on objective information. Drought Monitor graphic produced by a collection of governmental agencies. The most problematic source of the drought claims is the U.S. in general, often with a suggestion of a climate change origin. One example is the nearly constant talk about drought here in the Northwest and the western U.S. Unfortunately, there has been a lot of poor information about climate change, extreme weather, and drought being distributed by certain government agencies and some media.
