The National Weather Service issued a Wind Advisory on Friday, Nov. 4, and added that there’s a “slight chance of snow” starting Monday, Nov. 7, 2022.
An atmospheric river is aimed at the region, set to dump tons of precipitation as rain in the lowlands, snow in the mountains, along with wind gusts of over 40mph.
Power was knocked out to 267 Seattle City Light customers in Burien’s Three Tree Point neighborhood Friday morning.
A Flood Watch was also issued.
Normandy Park-based @SeattleWXGuy said in his Friday morning video forecast that we should expect possible power outages after 5 p.m. Friday night, followed by cold air moving in.
“Lots going on here folks,” Snyder said.

#wawx Wind Advisory would be fully warranted for Puget Sound tomorrow. ECMWF has been showing 40+ mph for most of the area, and some models have 47mph + which starts causing some real problems in the early season. Portland NWS has wind advisory up for lower speeds currently. pic.twitter.com/C1ZSyzP13f
