We have wet weather coming
Tonight will bring a LOT of rain and some strong winds so the roads should be cleaned out tonight. Showers through tuesday and then again tuesday night into wednesday morning... then a break until friday night with chance of rain over the weekend.

If the 2 per week trend is back, this means that we are heading into el nino year soon. It's been 6 years and i believe it's every 6-8 years, so we are probably looking at a LONG, COLD, rain season this winter. This will be a HUGE boost for the snow resorts.

You California guys are crazy... I've never seen people so worked up about rain! Cancel all your plans! Stay inside! Make sure you have plenty of food, blankets, and heat! I miss Seattle....!!!!!

Falken Ziex tires work really well in the rain/ice/snow you'll be fine!
