Hottest day of 2021 (so far)
Today is the first full day of summer and it will sure feel like it! Highs warmer than yesterday’s 81 at SeaTac by 5-6 degrees. I’m forecasting 87 for Seattle today.

Weather Alert Day for afternoon chance of thunderstorms
10am UPDATE-- We're starting to see the juicy atmosphere fire off some thunderstorms. As of this update, they're down in Central Oregon, but for a huge chunk of territory we'll see unstable air pair up with today's peak daytime heating. The area highlighted in the darker color is where there's a marginal chance of thunderstorms across NE Oregon and into Idaho. A slight chance of thunderstorms… → Read More
Soggy start to last week of spring
After our wettest day in Seattle since our February snowstorm-- we're still tracking two areas of circulation in the trough that's affecting the Pacific NW for the beginning of this week. They'll keep our weather active today and tomorrow with showers and a very slight chance of an isolated t-storm. We should be out of the showers and sun regimen by Wednesday afternoon and much warmer as we wrap… → Read More
Warmer, wetter and muggier weather ahead
Clouds rolled in late yesterday and will be with us most of the day today. But a lot of the incoming front that will mostly stay off shore-- but we could get a bit of wet commute for an hour or so with some light steady rain around the Central Puget Sound for an hour or so. By the afternoon we'll be mostly cloudy with some on/off showers. Today will be the chilliest day of the next 7 with highs… → Read More
Soggier but warmer weather by the weekend

Persistently pleasant with a few afternoon showers
We’re still under the influence of a dip in the jet stream called a trough. It’s delivering pretty benign weather with pleasant mornings and enough afternoon atmospheric lift to bring a few showers later in the day—but even those will hang mostly in the mountains/foothills and along the coast. → Read More
(Much needed) spring showers for the week ahead
That active soggy weather system is moving across Western WA this morning. Bands of moderate to light rain moving across parts of Puget Sound will keep the first part of the commute pretty wet and chilly with temps in the 40s. Snow levels could be low enough to deliver some snowflakes to 4K feet, the elevation roughly of Stevens Pass, but not much will stick. Can’t rule out an isolated small… → Read More

Magnificent Memorial Day as the NW sees summer-like temps
We'll see some filtered sunshine through the high clouds and highs in the 75-80 range. Memorial Day is usually the soggiest and coolest of our three “summer” holiday weekends-- but not this year.

Lingering showers in a few spots this morning. Today we'll be a lot like yesterday as we warm up a bit more than yesterday's soggy high temps near 60.
