Seattle breaks record with rain on 30 days in a month
Friday was the wettest day Seattle has seen this decade, according to the National Weather Service, with flooded rivers, landslides and standing water that closed roads around the region and delayed commutes. In Bellevue, one driver had to swim out of a car nearly overtaken by water. Rainfall records in the Seattle area were broken by the time some people got to work Friday morning, with 2 inches having fallen by around 9 a.m. It’s the most rain since record-keeping began in 1945 at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, beating the 1.93 inches that fell in 1955. And the rain continued, rising to 3.08 inches at Sea-Tac by 8 p.m., making the day the fifth wettest ever recorded there. Combined with the day before, which also broke records, the area had seen more than 4 inches of rain, according to the weather service. More is expected through Saturday afternoon, when the downpours should begin to taper off. It’s all because of an atmospheric river, a deep plume of warm moisture coming off the Pacific from the southwest, said weather service meteorologist Kirby Cook. The phenomenon, sometimes referred to as a Pineapple Express, is common here in the winter.
