I'm Glad I'm Not in Corvallis Anymore!

Last night, it was depressing to land in Fairbanks but after seeing the temperature in Corvallis, OR, I'm glad I'm not there anymore. I really have a hard time when temperatures get that hot. Last night, there was a ton of smoke in town and it was pretty grim but this morning, it was fairly clear with just a trace of smoke. It was a nice ride into work. This evening, the smoke is back. Whatever happened to the Fairbanks summers of old? It seems like the fires are much more common than they used to be. Even though it was smokey, I still enjoyed the ride. It has been two weeks since I've last ridden due to trips out of town.

Yesterday, when I was in line to get on the plane, someone pointed to the Seattle weather on the airport monitor. 96°F forcasted for Seattle today. I didn't think it ever got that warm in Seattle.
