catbirdseat Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 Doh, I thought you were referring to the number of consecutive days of rain in Seattle, which at present is 23. Quote
sexual_chocolate Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 November '98 to March '99, 93 days of rain in a row. Â We've got a long way to go.... Quote
archenemy Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 Strange, the article says that the record was 33 days Quote
kix Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 well that article can suck my left nut. Â 98 was my first winter here and I barely survived it with my sanity. Â 93 days. burned in my memory. Quote
archenemy Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 well that article can suck my left nut. 98 was my first winter here and I barely survived it with my sanity.  93 days. burned in my memory. Something in there certainly burned. Quote
sexual_chocolate Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 Yeah article is wrong. Google it. Â I missed most of the rain while in Thailand. People were pretty grumpy when we got back. Quote
Dru Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 93 days WITH rain is not the same as 93 days OF rain. Quote
archenemy Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 93 days WITH rain is not the same as 93 days OF rain. Yeah. Quote
sexual_chocolate Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 Dru that's a really good point and i thank you for clearing up any misconceptions. people were getting pretty confused. Quote
sexual_chocolate Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 It is true though that the phrase "93 days of rain" is more oppressive emotionally than "93 days with rain". Â Try it out! Experiment! Quote
Dru Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 93 days "of" rain means it rained 24/7 straight for 93 days. Â 93 days "with" rain means that there was measurable precipitation every day for 93 days. Like maybe for 5 minutes in the evening. Quote
RuMR Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 oh...thanks catbird...wait, you're dru, aren't you?? Quote
sexual_chocolate Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 93 days "of" rain means it rained 24/7 straight for 93 days. 93 days "with" rain means that there was measurable precipitation every day for 93 days. Like maybe for 5 minutes in the evening.  yes and doesn't that change the emotional tenor entirely? like the difference between Bach and Satie. Quote
Dru Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 oh...thanks catbird...wait, you're dru, aren't you?? Â shouldn't you be out skiing rumr? Quote

mattp Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 I don't know how you learned to speak, Dru, but a day "of" rain does not necessarily mean 24 hours non-stop rain to anybody but maybe you. Quote
RuMR Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 oh...thanks catbird...wait, you're dru, aren't you?? Â shouldn't you be out skiing rumr? hey fuck off...no reason to get nasty, ya wank... Quote

John Frieh Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 Doh, I thought you were referring to the number of consecutive days of rain in Seattle, which at present is 23. Â It's payback for last winter Quote
