Transfer Thread Pt 2.....

Another name I haven't heard anything about is Eternati Willock. She was kicked off Kansas States team last year. Troubled but Uber talented. I think she was #59 on Hoopgurlz.
 
I'm not buying it. Seattle is a great city. My sister lives there, so every time I go there to visit, or go there for business - whatever, it's always sunny (except the one time we got snowed in over New Years. 8" of snow and it took 3 days for them to dig out. They are unprepared for such things, being a sunny climate and all.).

I've gotten sunburned in Seattle more than once. I usually get this, "Geez, this is the first time we've been able to see Mt. Rainier in two years" line. Right. I hear there's a Starbucks on all four corners of some intersections because you need a cup of coffee to keep your hands warm. Not buying it. Chamber of Commerce propaganda.

Where's the fog? Where's the rain?

You've either been extremely lucky or you've only been there in June, July or August. I lived in the Seattle area for nearly 6 years and the weather is generally pretty consistent. Early June can be touch and go, but most of the month is nice. July and August are beautiful. September can be like June, some good, some bad. The rest of the year is rainy, drizzly and cloudy. There are some exceptions because there are a few micro climates in the northwest. For example, east of Seattle towards the mountains, towns like Monroe, Duvall, Sammamish, etc. lie in what's known as the "Convergence Zone", where storms back up against the Wenatchee Mountains and can sit for days on end. That area gets 55+ inches of rain/year. Port Townsend, northwest of Seattle, gets <30 inches/year.
We lived in Monroe, which averages 58 inches/year. The first winter there we experienced measurable rainfall for 51 straight days. We thought it was an anomaly. It wasn't.

Sierra Calhoun landed at Rutgers.

As time went on, I thought it would come down to St. John's or Rutgers. Coach Viv has been relying on transfers quite a bit recently and this looks very quid pro quo.
