Otoh, at the sheet metal place, with a 5 ton male pattern 9 foot diameter, 10 degrees of warmth would make almost .25" oversized parts.
You must have bad luck with weather. In the months of July and August Portland has an average of 7 days with rain with total accumulation of less than 1.5 inches. Even from June - September the average is only 4.6 inches.

The first year I moved here was an exceptionally good summer. I arrived May 20th and it might have rained once a month from then until September. Mild temperatures and no wildfires. So far that hasn't been replicated.
