Our version is described here, 2018’s heat set some records; 4 of Seattle’s 5 hottest years have now come this decade. I know that 85 degrees doesn't sound hot to some, but for folks who complain about physical activity after it gets to 70 — 85 is hot!
Not mentioned in the article is snowpack — which provides our summer supply of water for a variety of uses. So far so good — but it will become an issue. That's one of the reasons I've eliminated all my lawn areas except for two patches in front that can be mowed in less than 10 minutes.
