Soggy November in Olympia was only slightly wetter than normal
If November’s days seemed especially damp and dreary, they were in fact only slightly more so than usual. Chalk it up to November typically being the wettest month of the year.
According to the National Weather Service, Olympia received 9.07 inches of rain in November, which is just a little more than the November average of 8.63 inches.
The wettest November ever recorded was in 2006, when it rained a whopping 19.86 inches in Olympia.
Some hope is on the horizon, however, as the rest of the week looks to be dry to kick off December, which is typically the third rainiest month (January is second). It’ll be cold overnight, however, with temperatures dipping below freezing some days.
