Description
Rain returned Tuesday after what KING 5 Senior Meteorologist Rich Marriott says was a record-setting 14-day stretch of dry weather in November.
Many Seattle residents welcomed a day that felt like "normal November"-- including Marriott.
"I'll tell you personally, I was yelling at the sun this weekend, saying 'Go away!'," Marriott laughed.
It comes during a season that is projected to be wet later in the year, though Marriott says La Niña must be considered in relation to other factors as well.
This year, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicted a La Niña year, bringing on a weather system in which the Northwest is expected to see a cooler, wetter winter.
"Out in the middle of the Pacific and the tropical Pacific, we can correlate the tendency for winters to be warm and dry or wet and cool, with what the sea surface temperatures are out there," Marriott said. "It's kind of a complex relationship and it's statistical in the sense that what happens out of there tips the dice, loads the dice to be one way or another."
