That “lovely” weather we’re having: The rain from that dang atmospheric river crept into the morning, so stay alert if you’re driving in west central Washington. The National Weather Service in Seattle issued a flood advisory due to excessive rainfall. The clouds should clear after mid-morning, with rain possible again this afternoon. Rain is likely Thursday, less likely Friday, and very likely Saturday through next Tuesday. I’d get those steps in now unless you’re a little freak who enjoys walking in the cold wet.
Look, I know what you're thinking. This store-bought frosted sugar cookie sucks. This cookie is too crumbly. This cookie tastes exactly the same, whatever the color, and breaks the sacred code that white means vanilla and brown means chocolate. This cookie has a sawdust texture as if chemically engineered to have as much air as physically possible between molecules of butter, sugar, and flour.

Weather: Happy new year! Good to be back on Slog to tell you the bad bad news. Today looks sunny with a high of 49. Tonight the clouds roll in and temps drop to the high- to mid-30s. Expect the sun to return Thursday. Pack an umbrella Friday to brave the 40-percent chance of rain. I know we're too cool for those, but mild cold is much more dangerous when you’re wet. I came home from a walk the other night with purple lips and frost on my hat. I started shivering only when I warmed up, so be careful!

Back to Bobness: Bob Ferguson issued three executive orders on his first day as governor. The first directed the Department of Health to gather experts, doctors, and policymakers and come up with a plan to strengthen our strong reproductive health laws. The second told state agencies to examine, streamline, defer, or eliminate various regulations on housing, permitting and new construction. The third directs the state to speed up the permitting process and will refund application fees when the state misses deadlines. The Seattle Times reports Ferguson reiterated his three top priorities during his inauguration speech, which are housing affordability, universal free lunch, and public safety.
