The last day of June saw seasonal temperatures and partly sunny skies. High temperatures around the county ranged from 74 to 77.

The coast from Long Beach north had light rain from a weak weather system dragging across Western Washington. The storm track will remain to our north all week, bringing a chance of light showers through Tuesday and then again Friday through the weekend.

There could be rain on the coast, the Cascades and around Puget Sound. Forecast models indicate clear skies and temperatures in the 80s for the Fourth.

June had close to average temperatures but .90 inches below average in rainfall. Here are the May rainfall numbers from your neighbors:

Claudia Chiasson, Carson, .90 inches; Rob Starr, Cougar, .25 inches; Robin Ruzek, Lake Shore, .33 inches; Pete Conrad, Tukes Mountain, .20 inches; Dave Campbell one mile west of Heisson, .33 inches; Phil Delany, above Dole Valley, .50 inches; Tyler Mode, Battle Ground, .20 inches; Bob Mode, Minnehaha, .12 inches; Roland Emetaz, McLoughlin Heights, .12 inches; Judy Darke, Felida, .13 inches; Ellen Smart, Ridgefield, .50 inches; Matt Sloan, west Vancouver Heights, .22 inches; Bill Sobolewski, Livingston Mountain, .51 inches; Chuck Houghten, Hockinson Heights, .46 inches; Jim Knoll, Five Corners, .47 inches. Our friend Roland Dersken in Vancouver B.C. had his driest May ever with .12 inches. The official rainfall for our Vancouver was .14 inches, 2.33 inches below average.
