Colder Weather & A Break From Rain

After a week of active weather and 1-3 inches of rain, the weekend will give us a break from rain (temporarily).

It will also be noticeably cooler, not just at night, but during the day. Highs will reach 44-50 degrees, a big change from the mild weather earlier this week. 

Below is a graphic from NWS Seattle, showing the forecast morning lows on Saturday and Monday mornings. Expect Sunday night to be near freezing as well.


Click on the image to enlarge it. Expect morning lows of 28-35 degrees on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday mornings. Monday looks to be possibly the coldest morning of the season so far, with lows dipping into the upper 20s.

One more thing to be aware of is brisk northerly winds (remember, winds are named for the direction they come from). Our cold air is produced by cold winds blowing out of the Fraser River Valley in British Columbia. 

The strongest winds will be near the water, with gusts of 15-30 mph. 

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

A couple things to note...temperatures don’t go over 50 degrees, we have consistent lows in the 30s, and rain returns late Monday. It sure is November!!

Expect clouds and chances of rain to return Monday night, as active weather comes back once again by the middle of next week.
