Next storm to drop rapidly accumulating snow close to Seattle

Apotent storm is set to approach the rain-weary Northwest early next week, dumping rain and snow on the region. This can be both hazardous and helpful as the West suffers from extreme drought and the far Northwest remains waterlogged from previous storms.

"After having over 10 inches of rain during the month of November, yet another storm is set to bring more rain to Seattle Sunday night into Monday," said AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Dan Pydynowski.

The Emerald City reported 10.26 inches of precipitation throughout the eleventh month of 2021 thanks to rain falling on every day of the month except three. This was actually a small amount compared to some of its northern neighbors, like Abbotsford, British Columbia, which recorded about twice that much in the same time period.

Another storm is on the way to the northwestern United States, packing chilly, rainy weather. Fortunately for some, the storm track will shift southward, allowing storms to spare places in Canada that had disastrous flooding, like Abbotsford. This storm will likely restrain from drenching the Northwest until late in the weekend.

The summer smoke and heat where we are is intolerable.

But it feels like we are trying to escape climate change.

We shall see.

…but the heat and smoke have been pretty awful here the past few years as well, especially during last year’s “heat dome” event at the end of June.
