September 2013 in Seattle was warmer & much wetter than normal. The mean temperature was 63.2F/17.3C. The normal mean temperature is 61.6F/16.4C. The highest temperature was 93F/33.9C, the lowest 45F/7.2C. Total precipitation was 5.01 inches/127.25mm, which set a record for the month of September. Normal precipitation is 1.52 inches/38.61mm. The previous record was 2.9 inches/73.66mm in 2010. There were 3 days with heavy rain, 4 days with rain, 18 days with light rain, 9 days with fog, 7 cloudy days, 20 partly cloudy days & 3 fair days. The high temperature of 93F/33.9C on 9/11 was a shock after a summer with very few hot days. It was 80F/26.7C the day before & 78F/25.6C the day after. The heavy rain (3.1 inches/78.74mm) that fell 9/28-30 was also a surprise. So much rain in just a few days usually happens only in winter.

Seattle in September looks lovely. The photo with Dahlias is nice and bright. I have a couple of pots of chrysanthemums to help brighten my doorstep.
