NEXT WEEK

Monday: This could actually be a fairly quiet day with some clouds and sunshine. But a few showers could be around.

Tuesday: Rain is likely to return, and it’ll probably be pretty windy too. Right now, it doesn’t look like we’ll have a major wind event, though we’ll be watching the forecast models closely over the next few days in case a low pressure center develops and gets close to Western Washington.

Mid-week and beyond: Unfortunately, while it looked like we could get some drying, the forecast models are now pointing at continued soggy weather with rain at times. The risk of landslides due to excessive rainfall will continue to increase.
