Yesterday the downtown bank recorded a temperature of 87! And this is after six months of seeing the sun about once every two weeks, and temperatures mostly in the 40s and 50s.
The beaches have been EMPTY. The delightful Salish Sea gets to a high of 55 degrees, so anyone who swims is brave. But yesterday the beaches were FULL again! Tourists and locals, summer is here! The water temperature yesterday was 9 degrees C, which is 48 F. Cold for swimming.

I miss my beach very much but ain’t so easy these days to head back.
Good to see beach blues from your captures :)
Thank you, hope you get back sometime.
We hit 103 yesterday. I love the US Bank Temp….only because Chris works for US Bank. LOL
we went over 100 last summer, a record. Today was sunny and now we have high clouds and sun peeks.
I bet the clouds are cooling it down a bit. Stay cool :D
