Running in Seattle: what the weather does to your run
Seattle is the rain-gear capital of American running, but the rain is usually light and persistent rather than torrential. Temperatures stay mild and narrow year-round, so a water-resistant shell and a brimmed cap matter more than heavy insulation. Real heat is rare and brief.
