Seattle-Tacoma
Weather
Summer days in the Pacific Northwest are long and sun-splashed.
That's right, most summer and early fall days are sunny, or at least partly cloudy
and rainfall totals during the warmer months are a tiny fraction of some
other golf hot-spots like Florida or the Carolinas (see below). In fact, we
get less rain than Miami and Myrtle Beach in
7 out of 12 months!
With our northerly location, days are 16 hours long on June 21st
with twilight that lingers past 10:00 pm -- so playing 36 holes with a leisurely lunch is easy, and 54
holes is not out of the question!
And while winter days are frequently
damp and gray, the cool Pacific that brings those showers also moderates our
temperature (snow is rare), so that we do not experience the kind of cold temperatures you might expect
given the northerly latitude. In fact, our winter lows are nearly identical to those
of Myrtle Beach.
So if you can't visit in August, don't despair, bring a sweater and long
trousers. Chances are, you'll still have a great round and great visit -- with lower prices and fewer
crowds on the courses!
