Typical Fall Rain



After a couple of descent days here in Seattle, clouds are on the increase and showers will begin to approach the coast tonight in advance of the next frontal system. Light rain & showers will be around the area for most of tomorrow. We should see light rain approaching the interior sometime around 7am - 9am. The rain should turn to light showers later in the day once the front passes the area and we get into a nice westerly flow which could cause a Puget Sound Convergence Zone (PSCZ) to form over part of our area.

Rainfall amounts should generally be fairly low with most locations receiving .10-.30 inches.



The long range models are starting to hint at stronger Pacific systems and possibly some colder air arriving in about 7-10 days. Also, some models are showing the atmosphere getting cold enough for some lowland snow to fall towards early November, but temperatures are looking warm enough right now to prevent any accumulations if Snow does come early this season. Stay tuned as I will post more information as we get closer to the end of the month.

Are you guys enjoying this crisp, fall weather?
