Significant Cooling Ahead, Rain on the Horizon

8 out of the first 9 days of September have had a high of 75+ degrees. However, that is about to change. A significant cooling trend is expected, and temperatures at or above 75 degrees aren't expected for at least the next 10 days.

Thursday's highs are below. Widespread readings of 80-84 degrees were observed, with temperatures up to 85-86 degrees in the Eastern Lowlands.


We are in for a major temperature change in the coming days. Below is the Weather Underground forecast for Federal Way.


Cooling of around 10 degrees is likely for Friday. Highs remain in the low 70s through next Tuesday, with lows in the upper 40s to low 50s, except a bit warmer on Saturday night.

Now...what you've been waiting for...rain!!!

Below is part of the extended Weather Underground forecast for Federal Way at the end of next week (9/16-18).


Rain probability increases Thursday night, peaks on Friday, and becomes more showery on Saturday. (Take the chance of thunderstorms on Saturday with a grain of salt). Forecast models show up to 1.1 inches of rain through around the 19th. Bottom line: increasing chances of rain are expected by the end of next week! 

Something to look forward to! Stay tuned!
