I’ts official: as of 2:38 this afternoon (though this iPod screenshot was taken about an hour later), today is the hottest day in Seattle history! This is actually the second high temperature record set today, as temperatures last night only dropped to 71 degrees, breaking the previous record for highest low temperature…which had been set (well, okay, tied) the night before.
