Puget Sound in a sunny daze in February

Is it February or August? It’s hard to tell if you’re merely staring out your office window.

It’s pushing 60 degrees across much of the Puget Sound this Friday. Sea-Tac is reporting 58 degrees, a temperature we didn’t hit in 2011 until March 23. The record high at Sea-Tac on Feb. 3 was set in 1992 at 63 degrees.

A lot of people taking advantage of the beautiful, sunny weather, and getting their cars washed today. 97.3 KIRO FM’s Ursula Reutin reports seeing long lines at the Pink Elephant Car Wash in downtown Seattle.

The warmer, sunny days are expected until at least the middle of next week.
