Normandy Park-based @SeattleWXGuy says that – after a surprisingly cool and wet June-uary – confidence in a Pacific Northwest heat wave is increasing.

Almost just in time for summer, which officially begins at 2:13 a.m. on Tuesday, June 21, 2022.

Snyder is a resident who is also known as @SeattleWXGuy. He says that once the cooling trough moves out of the region, summer weather may finally begin.

A high of 82 is predicted for this coming Saturday, June 25, 2022, with the “real scorcher” predicted for Sunday, June 26 with highs in the mid to upper 80s or perhaps even the 90s.

Snyder works as an Alaska Airlines Aviation Weather guy/Flight Control, and is a longtime METAR instructor, Aviation Instructor, as well as former National Weather Service behind-the-scenes guy.
