16 year resident here, and I'm trying to think of a week where it snowed and hit 70 within a seven day period. I'm not saying GP is lying, not at all, but perhaps might have selectively remembered their time in Seattle in January. Perhaps the sun peeked out and it just seemed like it was 70 in contrast. :-)

You know that it's colder when you see the sun in January :P

Maybe they're thinking of Denver? Doesn't sound like the PNW I know. Although occasionally you do get some nice days in February. Not 70F nice, though.

I hesitate to pick on a post that was probably just a typo or remembering slightly wrong, but I was wondering so I looked it up: the record high for Seattle in January is 67F recorded in 1931. And the record low is zero...Fahrenheit. Yoiks, I'd have to consider moving again if it hit zero. :-)
