Seattle-area weather updates: Snow, wind and frigid temperatures
We’re updating this page with the latest news about the weather and its effects on the Seattle area.
www.seattletimes.comHere’s the latest Seattle weather snapshot, based on the most recent available reporting:
- Current trend: Western Washington has been seeing frequent rain bands with cool, mild highs in the 50s, and occasional gusty winds in the Puget Sound region.[1][2]
- Short-term outlook: Expect continued periods of showers into the weekend, with river levels monitoring for potential rises in heavier rain events. Some higher elevations may see accumulating snow again in the nearby mountains if cold air wraps in later in the week.[4][1]
- Special cautions: Keep an eye on advisories for potential flooding or landslide risks in western Washington during heavy rainfall, and plan for breezy conditions near coastal and Puget Sound areas.[1][4]
If you’d like, I can pull the very latest updates from official sources (NOAA/NWS Seattle-Tacoma, local TV stations) and summarize any active warnings or expected rainfall totals for Bend, OR to compare with Seattle. I can also fetch a current hour-by-hour forecast for Seattle and produce a quick chart.
