Seattle, WA – Rain soaked streets, gray skies and another approaching Pacific weather system are setting up a wet stretch across Seattle, with Friday bringing renewed travel concerns.
After a brief midweek break, another round of rain is expected to move into the Puget Sound region, potentially affecting commuters and weekend plans.
According to the National Weather Service, Seattle faces a 100% chance of rain Tuesday, November 10, with rainfall totals between one quarter and one half inch possible.
Temperatures reach approximately 57 degrees, while southeast winds remain near 7 to 9 mph.
Drivers along Interstate 5, Interstate 90 and State Route 99 should prepare for wet pavement, reduced visibility during heavier showers and potentially slower travel.
Wednesday Brings a Break Before More Rain Arrives Veterans Day, Wednesday, November 11, offers a temporary break from the wet pattern.
Cloudy skies remain, but temperatures climb toward 65 degrees, creating one of the warmer afternoons of the week.
That break may provide an opportunity to clear fallen leaves from storm drains and secure loose outdoor decorations.
However, meteorologists are tracking additional Pacific weather systems expected to bring renewed precipitation into western Washington.
Thursday starts cloudy, with temperatures near 60 degrees and only a 10% chance of rain after 4 p.m.
Rain chances increase significantly Thursday evening, reaching 60% after 4 a.m. Friday.
Friday Rain Could Affect Seattle Commuters Friday, November 13, marks another transition toward wetter conditions.
Rain is expected throughout the day, with highs near 57 degrees.
Cloudy skies and damp pavement could complicate travel along Seattle's busiest corridors, especially during periods of steady rainfall.
Residents should allow additional travel time and avoid driving through standing water.
Rain continues Friday evening, with temperatures falling toward 49 degrees.
Weekend Weather: Rain Continues Into Sunday Saturday, November 14, brings additional rain and highs near 55 degrees.
Sunday remains wet, with temperatures near 54 degrees.
The extended outlook suggests rain could persist into Sunday evening before chances decrease Monday.
Meanwhile, the broader Pacific Northwest storm track could bring mountain snow at higher elevations. No accumulating snow is indicated for downtown Seattle in the supplied local outlook.
There is also no specific tornado threat identified for Seattle.
As Thanksgiving approaches, residents should monitor future weather updates rather than assume winter conditions will develop locally.
