Saturday was one of the windier June days in recent memory. I recorded a 38 mph gust at my house in Federal Way, and many weather stations around the area recorded 25-35 mph gusts. Peak gusts are below.
Winds were fueled due to a cold front that moved through early Saturday. After the frontal passage, winds surged toward the passing low, contributing to the windy day on Saturday. Winds will subside through the day Sunday, occasionally gusting around 20 mph.
A stronger front will move in Sunday afternoon. Below is the UW forecast for rain through Tuesday morning, though most rain will fall on Sunday.
Expect 0.3 to 0.75 inches of rain on Sunday, with some showers remaining into Monday.
Additionally, there is a 10-20% chance of thunderstorms from 2 to 10 PM Sunday. Be prepared, and remember “when thunder roars, go indoors.”
Below is the Puyallup forecast from Weather Underground.
Expect rain on Sunday afternoon through the night. Then, partly to mostly cloudy days are expected with increasing temperatures and a slight chance of showers. Regarding temperatures...Sunday will be the coldest day, with temperatures in the upper 50s to low 60s. Monday through Wednesday will be in the mid 60s, warming to the upper 60s by Thursday.
Expect a rainy afternoon & evening on Sunday, then a chance of showers throughout the rest of the week.
