March rain < October-February rain

Cool & cloudy, with moderate rain every other day or so. It must be March … or November, December, January, February, or April … in the Northwest! 🤣

23 years ago, it was thunder-snowing!

Underrated

26 years ago today, in what feels like a forgotten windstorm, Seattle gusted to 60 mph. There was no school for thousands of kids the next day — Seattle’s latest (in the school year) wind-related school closure in memory.

What a fabulous start to March! Made it up to 62 today with plenty of afternoon sun . ☀️

For the first time in months, it’s 60 degrees in Seattle! 👏

The Seattle Waterfront and Olympic Mountains are showing off today! #wawx

It really is! The Olympics are showing off!

Fantastic day in Seattle today!

7:10pm: PSE reporting 88 outages, 10,643 customers impacted. It’s gonna be a long night! #wawx

sideways rain in seattle! little bit of thunder too ✨ thanks for the warning, @seattleweather.bsky.social !

Heavy rain and wind picking up here on the Seattle waterfront #wawx

Dark and stormy night ahead! Prepare for heavy rain and gusty winds—near 50 mph in the Seattle area. At this time of year, that’s usually not enough to cause widespread power outages as trees are bare/weaker branches have already fallen. We’ll see.

A wee bit windy today

Some crazy stats as we await the arrival of ❄️snow tonight: 🔹February is running TEN degrees below normal 🔹32 of the last 33 days have been colder than normal. 🔹Seattle has recorded 26 freezes since New Year’s

❄️MORE SNOW AHEAD❄️ Fresh off back-to-back record low temps in Seattle (20° today, 23° yesterday), snowy weather will add to this week’s wintry feel. Plan on light snow from Seattle south tomorrow afternoon, moving north during the evening. Accumulations of 1-2” possible. 😀😀

Surprise Snow This Morning!! ❄️💙

Just about two inches of snow in West Seattle! #wawx @seattleweather.bsky.social

No signs of the cold weather letting up anytime soon. 🥶 Plan on high temps only in the 30s for the next week! Normal early February high is 50 degrees.

Has been snowing for about 2 hours here SE of Duvall (500’ in elevation & 32°F) #wawx

Currently, in the SE corner of Bellevue ❄️ @seattleweather.bsky.social

Winter wonderland here in the Cascade foothills! At least an inch, if not more, accumulated so far. #wawx

Enjoy 20 seconds of snow falling this morning in Tacoma. It was delightful!

Good chance of more sticking snow for Seattle through Monday! Showers will be hit-and-miss, but most should pick up an inch. And maybe more. 🤞🤞

Sorry, boss, won't be able to make it to work on Monday because of the storm.

Just like in 2019, it’s the end of January and Seattle hasn’t seen a single flake of snow all winter. Just like in 2019, that’s about to change with the arrival of February. Wintry fun is in store for the next several days. Buckle up—it’s gonna be an interesting ride! ❄️🤞❄️

The sun’s been nice, Seattle, but it’s high time to make for snow. 🤞❄️🤞

❄️Is Seattle going to see sticking snow next week? ❄️ At this point, I’d put the odds at about the same as the Eagles winning the Super Bowl. Slightly less than even.

For the first time in 16 days, Seattle had a high temperature yesterday that wasn’t between 41-44 degrees. Give it up for Jan. 27’s 47-degree max 👏

Rain? Snow? Rain/snow mix? All of the options are on the table from Saturday onward. At this point, given Seattle’s uncanny ability to thwart snow if at all possible, I’d lean toward a chilly rain for most (boo! Boo!) Don’t get out those snow boots quite yet. ☹️

Would be surprised if Seattle didn’t at least see snow in the air from the upcoming pattern (next Saturday onward).

Seattle hasn’t seen a single flake of snow all winter. That could change by next weekend, because of course, February. Stay tuned!

For the past two weeks, the high temp in Seattle has only varied by 3 degrees! From Jan. 12-25, the high has been between 41-44 degrees.

With a low temperature of 29°, today marks Seattle’s ninth straight day with a low at or below freezing.

More cold but dry weather is on tap this weekend. Highs will be in the 40s, lows in the 20s … FOR LIKE THE THIRD WEEK IN A ROW!

Today marks our final sunset in the 4 pm hour until November. 5 pm sunsets start tomorrow!

With a low of 26°, today tied Tuesday for the coldest temperature of the winter. It was also our 7th straight day with a low at/below freezing. 🥶 I know, I know…they’re laughing at us even in the Deep South.

To all those cities complaining about how New Orleans has received more snow than they have… At least you’ve seen SOME snow! ❄️ In Seattle, we haven’t even seen a single snowflake this winter. As in, nothing. Zilch. Nada. (Did I jinx things? I sure hope so!)

Heads-up! Potential for a region-wide windstorm Thursday morning as deep low approaches central or southern Vancouver Island. The further south the low = the greater threat for damaging winds (50 mph+) in the metro area. Stay tuned!

Does Seattle see more ❄️snow in winters where the White House changes hands? 🇺🇸 www.seattlemet.com/news-and-cit...

Everything looks better with snow 😀

Today marks the 8th straight day without rain in Seattle. Sorry, sun lovers, but the other shoe is about to drop 🤣🌧️🌧️🌧️
