Weather of Olympia, Washington

 * Delete. WP is not a meteorological service. I would want to draw a line at climate by state. Weather by location is just too specific. I would also draw your attention to Category:Climate of the United States by state. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 03:18, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Olympia, Washington which contains a summary of the most relevant data in a more readable form. The last half of the article, with statistics like "First average 20 °F (−7 °C)" (and 24, 28, 32 and 36 F as well) is far too trivial to be of interest. However, some statistics like "highest recorded" temperatures may be of relevance (for instance, The World Almanac's table "Normal High and Low Temperatures, Precipitation, U.S. Cities", for the 2011 edition on page 309) contains this kind of information for several cities), so keep the history in case something should be merged.

 * Comment - Agree with nom that standalone weather articles for cities should be cleaned up. "Weather of.." articles can be redirected to "Climate of.." articles or to the Climate section in the main article about the place. Any useful content can be merged over where appropriate.

 * Looks like the only two that exist are being dealt with. See "Weather+of". -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 20:25, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
