Problems will arise in Seattle just like anyplace. Biggest problem: Rain.
(2) Lack of sunshine (3) Distance (4) costs overall (5) Did I say rain? (6)
Clouds

the art was too spread out in tampa=3D2C and that kind of sucked. it
would have been nice if the whole conference could have been in St.
Pete where all the art was.

Uff da
who started this? Me?
The facts

Precipitation in Seattle during April, historic and April 2010

Days less than .01=3D94 21

Days less than .10=3D94 8

Days less than .50=3D94 1

Days less than 1.00=3D94 1

Monthly total 3.34=3D94

Monthly Records High 7.8=3D94 Low .37=3D94

So the odds are about one in three for being little or no rain on any April
day.

(To H.M. in the wet-lamit valley OSU says the average is 40"-50" per year.
NOAA says Seattle's average is 36". Being in a La Nina year our total at
the end of 2010 was 42.5". If next year we swing into a El Nino cycle we
might have a dry April)
