By Jon Liu Happy Thursday, Huskies!  Today’s forecast is looking wet indeed, as flood warnings have been issued for certain parts of north-western Washington; accumulation is expected to be high enough that certain river banks will overflow, causing flooding.

Forecast: October 23rd, 2021

By Jon Liu Good afternoon Huskies, hope everyone’s having a restful weekend so far. We generally stick to forecasts and current conditions on this blog, but with all the hullabaloo about the storm this weekend, I felt that a more specific blog post about the “bomb cyclone” might be in order. Fear not; regular updates…

Forecast: October 21st, 2021

By Rachael Fewkes Good evening Huskies! If you stepped foot outside sometime today, you probably felt unusually warm for this time of the year.

By Jared McGlothlin Good morning Huskies! Most of you probably woke up to a typical October day for Seattle: wet and dreary.
