    October begins but wet and windy fall storms stay away (opens the original)

    WASHINGTON — After a stellar Wednesday, I’ve been describing Thursday’s forecast as just a little bit of a “speed bump.” It’s really a pretty small one! Through the day, there could be a few passing sprinkles or very light showers mainly along areas nearest the Canadian border, though later in the afternoon and evening a few sprinkles may drift elsewhere. Still, this is a very minor weather change for most of Western Washington, with many communities staying dry. Highs will remain mild

    BREMERTON, Wash. — A 4.2 earthquake struck on the northern part of the Key Peninsula along the Pierce/Kitsap county line at 2:05 p.m. Tuesday. That’s about 12 miles south-southwest of Bremerton and less than ten miles northwest of Gig Harbor. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has received many reports of people feeling the quake from the central Puget Sound near Seattle south to Lewis County and east into the Cascade foothills.

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    WASHINGTON — If it feels like the nicest weather keeps showing up during the work week only to disappear by the weekend, you’re not imagining things. Back in August, I wrote about the remarkable run of cooler-than-normal weekends that repeatedly interrupted stretches of warm summer weather. Now that it’s September, I’ve been looking for the odd pattern of “bad luck” to break. It really hasn’t. Wednesday was easily the warmest day of the work week and a reminder that late summer warmt

    Cooler temperatures, rain bring better air quality near wildfires (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Beneficial rainfall over the weekend and through Labor Day continues to be good news for firefighters battling several major wildfires in central Washington. The Little Giant Fire north of Leavenworth and west of Lake Chelan continues to burn, though smoke output has dropped considerably since mid-August. Moderate air quality is expected through Monday evening and into Tuesday around Chelan, while air quality remains good across most other areas. We’ll see warmer and drier weather through Wedn

    Chances of rain to slowly pull parts of Washington out of severe drought (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    While we’ve endured one of the worst fire seasons in more than a decade across our state, the weather pattern changes occurring with the start of September are a good reminder that — eventually — we’ll have more rainfall and snow to quench those fires. In fact, recent rains and cooler weather have helped firefighters with containment on some of the larger fires, like the Little Giant Fire north of Leavenworth. Still, all of eastern Washington is in significant drought status according to
