On: Multifault earthquake threat for Seattle region re...

[rconti]

Man, I moved from Seattle to the Bay Area and in the intervening 20 years it sure seems like summers in the PNW have gotten hotter than they are down here.

Longtime Bay Area resident here - I haven't looked at the data, but it seems like this area seems to be getting colder over the past ten years. If so, it's an illustration that we're facing not global warming but climate change.

Been in the Bay Area since I was 2, 58 years...

I never remember having heat waves in October or February. We also never needed AC, although maybe I'm just growing soft in my old age.

"Indian Summer" meant things might get a bit warm in September, then cool down. Weather stayed cool until the spring.

This summer has been oddly cool (at least in Berkeley), but got up to 92 2 weeks ago, which is not normal.

No, you're looking at just a few years of data on a certain region.

When the global average temperature rises some places will get cooler from time to time, there are multiple underdamped systems at play.
