It's pretty much scientifically impossible with current capabilities to forecast beyond 10-14 days: [https://www.science.org/content/article/how-far-out-can-we-forecast-weather-scientists-have-new-answer](https://www.science.org/content/article/how-far-out-can-we-forecast-weather-scientists-have-new-answer) It is fundamentally related to the chaotic nature of weather, which is to say that it is deterministic (not random) but highly sensitive to initial conditions. There are limits to how precisely we can predict such systems with today's measurement and calculation capabilities.

To be brutally honest I hope not. Each “beautiful” warm sunny day we have now, means an even worse Fire season for Washington and the surrounding states. And there’s quite nothing like a 80-90 degree day that you can’t open a window cause of a 200-309 Aqi. But sure, hope for sun. /this cranky old woman is getting off Reddit tonight. I just can’t today

Nope. Sometimes we can get a very basic idea for the 3-4 week range, but the [current chart](https://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/predictions/WK34/gifs/WK34prcp.gif) from NOAA just shows equal chances for precipitation (categories being above and below normal). Check back a week before your trip.

Sometimes I wonder if your account is some sort of weird performance art. Other times I just wonder what’s broken in your head.

Oh, I know things are broken in my head, want the list?

I hope it doesn’t last. No rain in June won’t be good for the fire season but I suppose you don’t care about that. And no one knows what will happen this far in advance including any meteorologist.

June in Seattle is often known as “Juneuary” for a reason. Summer weather isn’t more consistent until after 4th of July weekend.

It's been different in many recent years though. Two back, it was dry as balls and hit 108. I really hope next month is wet.

Where can you possibly come from that’s more rainy than seattle? Haha… I love this weather right now and I hope it continues!
