Miss the rain? Statistically, it won't be back anytime soon. The next four weeks are normally the driest time of the year in Seattle, according to the National Weather Service. July 29 marks the city's historical driest day, the weather service added, as measurable rain has fallen only 5% of the time. The last day it rained in Seattle was June 27, but dry spells this time of year are normal, said Jacob DeFlitch, a weather service meteorologist in Seattle. 'This is a dry season, so we can often see a couple of weeks of dry weather in a row,' DeFlitch said, adding that it isn't unusual for a month to pass without rain.
