I was surprised that... I've been living in Washington State for around 1 year. I came here in March, 2015, and I was surprised, when I got to the airport, that it was rather warm here than Kyoto, Japan. As Washington is located in the north of Japan in terms of latitude, I had thought it was colder here. After two weeks since I started my new life, I had an opportunity to go on business trip for New York State. New York is located in the south of Washington in terms of latitude, I had thought it was warmer here. As I was lightly dressed, I felt SO cold, of course. After that, I make it a habit to check the temperature in the place where I'll visit beforehand. I heard that an ocean current affects the temperature here though, is it right?

Tak, good essay. I see that most of my corrections are the same as what Ashly already shared. Are you in the Seattle area? Seattle is protected by the Olympic mountain range to the west, and the Cascade mountain range to the east, so it's protected from a lot of harsh weather. It doesn't really rain that much in Seattle, it just rains a little bit - most of the time. The sky might be cloudy, and there will be a light misty rain for months without end. But it's nothing like 梅雨. Summers in Seattle are wonderful.
