"Dry For The Rest Of The Year"

HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!!!!   I want to take this opportunity to wish everyone a very Happy New Year.  May all your dreams for 2007 come true.  It's been such fun reading your journals and sharing in your lives this past year.  I do want to say that one of the most incredible experiences I've had is hearing Stevie in the U.K. sing the Star Spangled Banner on a video entry of his.  It's also been a pleasure to vote for Barbara in Texas.  I hope you both keep singing in the new year !

I don't have much to report from here.  No big plans for New Years Eve other than to stay home and off the streets.  If you're out there driving around.......be careful.

The last few days have been frosty, foggy and cold but as the heading of this entry reads...."it's going to be dry for the rest of the year."  So that means no rain today, right ?  This last Wednesday morning there was snow in some out lying areas....I saw snow on lot's of cars as I drove to work and some in the parking lot.  But not here at my house.  Here's the recent report from KOMO TV in Seattle;

"Dear Linda,

Once again we have areas of low clouds and fog in the south Sound this morning. Some spots are below freezing so be ready for some slick roads. The final day of 2006 is going to be nothing like the rest of the year.....calm. Just plan on mostly cloudy skies with highs in the mid 40s. The chance for a few rare sprinkles will only be in the far north Sound. Tonight we will ring in 2007 with temps in the upper 30s so bring a jacket, but you won't need a raincoat. The new year will bring a new round of rain with showers starting by mid New Year's Day. By Tuesday we go from showers to full on rain. The rest of the week we deal with one system after another. That means we go back and forth from showers to rain with highs in the mid 40s. Updated Sunday 7:50 a.m. more...

Sincerely, KOMO 4 Weathercaster Theron Zahn" Well, again.....I just want to wish everyone a very Happy New Year....stay safe and God Bless ! Linda and little Gabi in Washington state
