Showers & Breezy On Sunday Then A Transition To Drier Weather

After a couple days of showers, periodically breezy conditions, and some sunbreaks, another weather system will move in on Sunday.

Rain will move in early Sunday morning, becoming scattered showers through the day Sunday. Below is the expected rain through 4 PM Monday from the UW model.


Expect light rain, totaling 0.05 to 0.25 inches. Notice that there’s “lines” of heavier rain on the map above. That shows that there will be heavier showers at times. 

There is also a chance of thunderstorms on Sunday, mainly from mid-morning to late afternoon. In any storm cell, be prepared for heavy rain, gusty winds, and potential hail and lightning.

Sunday will also be breezy. Below is the 4-model forecast for Puyallup.


Expect winds gusting 20 to 40 mph, mainly from early Sunday morning into the early evening. As always, some localized tree damage and isolated power outages are possible.

As showers and clouds move out of the area Sunday night, temperatures will drop into the low 30s. 


After the weather system moves out Sunday night, expect a nice week with little rain. High temperatures will be in the mid-upper 50s, with lows in the 30s. 

Some frost is possible in the mornings this week. Since we are getting into springtime, frost can impact plants that are starting to grow. Pay attention to forecast low temperatures if you’re growing plants.
