Break in the Weather, Active Pattern Likely Next Week

After an active week of weather in Western Washington, we will have a “break” of sorts with some drier weather likely this weekend.

It was a windy and rainy week...with gusts of 20-50 mph on Tuesday and 20-35 mph on Wednesday and Thursday. 

Rain-wise, take a look at the totals this month so far. 


Wow! 2.5-6.5 inches of rain this month! For those of us who are tired of rain...I have good news! Drier weather is likely on Friday, Saturday, and most of Sunday. 

Below is the 10-day forecast for Puyallup from weather.com.


Drier weather, with lower precipitation chances, is likely on Friday and Saturday. Rain chances return late Sunday, but most of the day should be dry. Some good days to rake some leaves or be outside! Notice that the “normal” rainy pattern persists into December.

There is still a small chance of rain this weekend. Below is the UW model forecast for rain through 4 PM Sunday.


Expect another 0.1-0.5 inches of rain. I’d say that the most rain is likely later on Sunday.

The active pattern will likely return by late Monday. More rain & mountain snow and breezy conditions are likely. 

Below is the forecast rain through Thanksgiving. The UW model indicates 0.5-2.5 more inches of rain. 


Stay tuned and enjoy the relative break in the weather...for now!
