Anyone who lives here can tell you that the troughing has tended to focus on the weekends over the last couple of months with more cloudiness and rain in parts of the region. SEA rainfall stats notwithstanding. Its not debatable... we lived it. The timing this week is a big improvement.
Had to FACT CHECK this post. As it turns out, since 6/1 at SEA, there have been a grand total of 4 weekends with measurable rainfall. 1 in June, 1 in July (.01"), 1 in August, and 1 in September.
