 That this winter was no better or no worse than usual.  Sure we had rain, cold temps and wind, but that happens every winter.  The one big storm doesn't strike me as enough to tip the balance in favor of "bad", but OTOH I grew up on Whidbey Island where we always got slammed with storms coming in through the Strait of Juan de Fuca...

the rain has changed

Or maybe I'm just from Seattle? I don't know, but it seems to me as if we have far more Midwest style heavy rains than I remember ever having in the Pacific NW. Months and months of mist is what I remember, not fairly regular downpours.

Then I'm not the only one...

After I got back from two years in hell....  errr San Diego I thought the rains seemed heavier, different.  I thought maybe I had forgotten how they were, but I always recalled more mist than heavy rains.
