Rain returns to Seattle
By the numbers:
After a break from the rain on Thursday, the next round of showers will hit Friday into Saturday. A quarter to a half inch of rain is possible during this time in the Puget Sound lowlands. Snow levels will also be dropping to around 5,000 to 6,000 feet.
If you’re suffering from allergies right now, it’s likely due to the increased grass and weed pollens. Peak grass pollen season happens in Western Washington now through the middle of July.
