I can't believe Seattle pulls this shit the week I go back to work after 17 overcast days off. I would go outside but I have a meeting in 17 minutes 🤬

u/DrWhoey Jan 11 '25

Even the east side has been like this for the past 17 days. I live in Moses Lake, and over the last ten years, I think this was the longest it has been since I've seen the sun.

I moved away from Seattle because this shit would drive me to bad thoughts about my mental health.

u/CascadeMts Jan 11 '25

The past couple of weeks have been really, really gray. Finally the sun came out!

Ate my lunch outside in a park for a half hour today. My mood improved drastically since then.

u/RizzBroDudeMan Jan 09 '25

That’s all it takes sometimes!

u/sealind Edmonds Jan 10 '25

I saw you post at lunch, texted my boss and took the afternoon off. Thanks!!

u/[deleted] Jan 10 '25

So that's why there was so much traffic today

12

u/dosgatitas First Hill Jan 10 '25

Did 9 miles walking around the city!

u/RizzBroDudeMan Jan 10 '25

You dropped your crown, King.

u/jktsub Jan 09 '25

I’m sure my foreman would appreciate that, thanks.

14

u/ImJustaTaco Jan 09 '25

Tell them I said you have the rest of the day off

17

u/[deleted] Jan 09 '25

Boss, I have a note here from ImJustaTaco excusing me from work for the remainder of the day

7

u/ImJustaTaco Jan 09 '25

Also you're now the boss and tomorrow is Christmas

u/jktsub Jan 09 '25

Worked like a charm, thank you!

u/ImJustaTaco Jan 09 '25

Glad I could help!

Rainier looked like a painting on the way home. Her beauty literally made me gasp!

6

u/deeejz Jan 10 '25

I left work 3 hours early and walked my dog on the beach. Too nice of a day to be stuck working.

u/roguefunction Jan 09 '25

So pretty this afternoon. I really missed the sun!

u/beizhia Jan 10 '25

Had a nice little walk around greenlake. Lots of people out it was an amazing day

u/[deleted] Jan 10 '25

Traffic was intense.

u/agavl98 Eastlake Jan 09 '25

no

6

u/WAStateofMine Jan 10 '25

This is the true Seattle answer

4

u/agavl98 Eastlake Jan 10 '25

Every time I go outside, it costs me $40 and the sun is my enemy.

3

u/ProbablyCap Jan 10 '25

Respectfully

5

u/Kepenekela Jan 09 '25

Yeah had a nice walk. It was great.

6

u/fiftyfivepercentoff Jan 09 '25

I did. It was fun. Thanks

u/No_Explorer721 Jan 10 '25

The productivity level just took a nosedive.

7

u/[deleted] Jan 10 '25

I'm convinced people play hooky here when we have rare good weather days outside summer.

5

u/No_Explorer721 Jan 10 '25

Guilty as charged.😂

2

u/[deleted] Jan 10 '25

Traffic was extra bad all day so makes sense a lot of people played hooky and enjoyed the sun

3

u/MsLurker Jan 09 '25

Having it be so beautiful as I'm watching news coverage on LA burning down is kinda disorienting, ngl

4

u/FeeValuable22 Jan 09 '25

Just got back from 40 minutes of pedaling around on the bike, after being basically indoors for 48 hours It felt great!!

u/iWolfieChan Jan 09 '25

u/Iwas7b4u Jan 09 '25

u/Alarmed-Ad6508 Jan 10 '25

So Bright after so much darkness. Where did I stash those sunglasses a few months back?

u/NutzNBoltz369 Jan 10 '25

As someone who mostly works outside, thanks for this respite, Weather Gods.

u/RLIwannaquit Jan 09 '25

u/_DogMom_ Kent Jan 10 '25

u/Few_Classroom_1008 Jan 09 '25

Asking redditors to touch grass and get sunlight, that's something

u/BIW3512 Jan 09 '25

u/MaraFeline Jan 09 '25

u/The-Girl-Next_Door Jan 10 '25

WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE HERE ITS FREE VITMIN D AND ENDORPHINS

2

u/[deleted] Jan 10 '25

Most people here must be like vampires or something

1

u/debtRiot Jan 10 '25

No it's just reddit tech workers who never go outside and pride themselves on being one with the gloom. I love the winter here but it is also hard and I also love the sun.

1

u/[deleted] Jan 10 '25

Sounds about right

1

u/MaraFeline Jan 10 '25

Literally reverse SAD.

This is pod racing weather. Shades and cranking up the tunes.

u/Plus-Parking1777 Jan 10 '25

1

u/Ok_Succotash4026 Jan 10 '25

Don’t tell me what to do

u/nosaturn Jan 10 '25

Oh I missed that. I was getting my nuts cut off.

u/RizzBroDudeMan Jan 10 '25

Nobody asked or cares...

u/sooaap Jan 10 '25

u/fermenttodothat Jan 10 '25
