And southern and northern Washington. And southern, central and northern BC. And probably Northern California. And western Idaho

00Z GFS holds the rain off until evening on Monday which allows high temps to reach the 70s around Seattle.   But then delivers nicely on Monday night.

Likin’ the trend of me being in the yellow. Would be sweet to score an inch or more!

Hope of those darker greens get up to Tacoma. I love summer rains at night, there's that refreshing distinct smell to it.

But you already admitted this is a joke and you don't really want it to happen.    

You’re no fun at all.

06Z ECMWF... 

[Rubus Leucodermis]

Now within 72 hours and the models all basically agree on a rain event. Safe to say it’s happening.

[Rubus Leucodermis]

GFS and GEM. It’s coming.

[MossMan]

Just a few puffs floating about.

I will be surprised if I get enough rain to even wet the roads.

SWerly flow doesn’t scream big rain shadow down south of Seattle or out on the peninsula. 

[MossMan]

It’s coming!! I feel just like I did on 2/2/19 with nervous anticipation!!!! 

[Omegaraptor]

A couple hundredths of an inch of drizzle is now the peak of weather excitement.

We really need a thunderstorm setup or something, bad.

[TT-SEA]

Midsummer convective setups went from rare to unicorn status here this decade.

Agreed.   Shelton averages 66 inches of rain per year.   Not every pattern can be totally dry there.

Glad to see the models agreeing on a rain event. I think this is actually going to work out.

Copper Ridge 20 miles or so roundtrip.

Yeah there were some great setups in the 2010s.

If there's any solace, 5/28/20 was one of the best severe thunderstorm setups of the last few decades in eastern WA.

2012 was glorious for Thunderstorms I remember thunderstorms once or twice per week during July/August in Western Washington
