Skies cleared up and it is in the high 50's. The data from The Weather Channel is showing rain for the next week but Cliff Mass has some good words:
An Encouraging Weather Forecast
We all need some good news and I will give that to you.
The weather is going to improve by next weekend here in the Northwest. Much warmer and even some sun.
But there is also some bad news....we will have to get through a cool/cloudy period first.
Let's face it. It has been cool and murky this week, a situation that heightened the stress of all the virus news. Below are the temperatures at SeaTac during the past two weeks, with the normal highs and lows plotted. Our daily maximum temperatures have been well below normal the last six days. Like 5-10F below normal. Plus lots of clouds and light rain.
And the good news:
Fortunately, as the week progresses an upper level ridge of high pressure will build along the West Coast and temperatures will rise. To warm you up, here is the latest forecast for high and low temperatures at SeaTac based on the European Center ensemble forecasting system (running their model many times and taking the average). High temperatures climb roughly 10 degrees between this weekend/Monday/Tuesday and later in the week. You will notice that.
Much needed - time for the grass to dry out so I can start working clearing it out and getting some plantings in.
