Seattle rain
We were supposed to get a break yesterday after 31 days with no measurable precipitation. Didn't happen.

Well, you should be here in Oklahoma with me then. I was just in Seattle a couple of weeks ago. I'd take your weather over ours.

lennyba, my post was directed toward those posters who say "I understand that it always rains in Seattle...what should I pack?".

Total rainfall for September was .03". Sorry, suze, that prediction did not pan out...at the airport, anyway.

Well visitors are *always* asking about the rain in Seattle and I believe this IS a travel forum.

Spirobulldog, two things are always fodder for discussion when Seattle is the topic: "It always rains in Seattle," and the identification of the Pike Place Market.

.03 total July 21 to the present

On the bright side, Seattle has been immune to "Global Warming" in recent years.


Nobody has invented (what they'll call) Global Drying yet.

Just an FYI...it has been HOT in San Diego this Summer. We are in middle of a heat wave again this week was 107 inland San Diego today.

2 weeks ago it was 102 at the coast...I'd like to move back home to Seattle.

I'm enjoying reading about the Seattle rain (or current lack thereof) because I'm planning a trip there next June.

Since I have heard so much about how rainy Seattle is, I'm finding this thread interesting.

Next June it will be considerably chilly... as that is the new local weather pattern, brought to you by, yes, you guessed it: "global warming".


In two of the last five Junes here, the temps have topped out at 66 and 67 degrees for the month, at nearby Boeing Field in Seattle.

The others were 78, 76, and 73 for month-high temps.
