More a case of you being too far SE than a rain shadow, I would say. This AR is coming out of the WSW, and we are near the southern edge of it. A steep precipitation gradient is to be expected.

It is actually sunny, warm, and dry in Seattle today, believe it or not.

Look like it’s stopped… for now. So call it 78.0 mm storm total IMBY (50.6 mm since midnight).

Rainiest 18 Oct at YVR was 35.8 mm in 1940. That record is sure to fall (probably already has).
