Step (briefly) aside, El Nino! Western Washington has its first mountain snow alerts of the season! Could see 4-8" at Stevens Pass into Wednesday and 1-3" at Snoqualmie Pass. Bulk of the snow tonight.

So far, October 2026 is still clinging to the record even after this morning's rain -- we're at 0.29" this October thru 11 a.m. But I think we've got another 0.03" in the cards between now and Halloween.
The first real wetting storm of October should finally be enough to keep #Seattle from setting the record for driest October on record (0.31").
But will we escape the Top 3?

#Seattle (0.08") is about to finish October drier than Las #Vegas (1.19") for just the 2nd time (1972).
But Vegas isn't the only unexpected "L" Seattle is on track for in the October rain loss column this year -->

"Cirque de la Pluie"? Euro model is really put on some acrobatics with multiple low centers spinning off them re-merging, and even heading "backwards" at times :O
Somehow both of these things were true in #Seattle Friday as it hit 77 degrees:
* It was one of the hottest late October days in Seattle history…
* It didn’t even set a record high.
But don't worry, Zombie Summer is over now. Really. I mean it.

"Zombie Summer" is coming to #Seattle this Friday. Only instead of eating brains, this weather pattern is eating rains.
(Oh, and bringing high temps into the low-mid 70s...)
