Digest more
Rain showers will return to the forecast Monday as a weak disturbance moves through western Washington. Snow levels will be around 3,000 feet, bringing some light snow accumulation over the mountain passes. After Monday’s rain, we will dry out again Tuesday through Friday with morning clouds and fog, and afternoon sunshine.
The first Saturday in February will see rainy conditions with a high of 52 and breezy winds with gusts up to 21 mph, according to the National Weather Service. Football fans can expect a high of 46 on Sunday, with afternoon showers, as the 12s gather to watch the Seahawks take on the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LX.
There’s nothing sadder than a warm, sunny day in winter, at least to a skier. Well, maybe a warm, rainy day in Seattle winter is worse. Because either one of those mean one thing to the ski-obsessed: There’s no new snow in the mountains.
We're tracking yet another frigid evening and overnight ahead of us going into the Rams versus Seahawks game on Sunday.
Seattle’s 14-day dry spell ended Tuesday night, finishing one day short of the 15-day record; light rain will continue through Friday with a mostly cloudy Saturday. A Flood Warning is active for the Skokomish River near Potlatch through tonight as it crests near 17.6 feet, threatening local roads like Highway 106 and Skokomish Valley Road.
A dense fog advisory is in effect until 9 a.m. Thursday. After that, expect warm days and dry weather until a pattern change brings back the rain this weekend.
Cold temperatures and key injuries could play an outsized role when the Seahawks host the Rams on Sunday in a high-stakes playoff showdown. Seattle will be under a cold weather advisory through 9 a.m. Sunday, with kickoff conditions expected to be brisk even as temperatures gradually climb, according to AccuWeather.
