The greater Seattle area, including the cities of Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, Woodinville and Renton, is set among natural wonders found in few other places in the country. Mount Rainier fills the southern sky and sparkling lakes define the urban landscape, while alpine mountains and rain forests lure residents and visitors alike.
The area is rich with opportunities for world-class dining, shopping, visual and performing arts, and entertainment. Easy access to spectacular areas for water sports, hiking, climbing and skiing make it a year-round playground. And whether your tastes run to syrah or microbrews, opera to thumping blues, you’ll find plenty to fill your leisure time. |

Weather
|
|
|
It doesn't really rain here every day—but it is overcast or drizzly more than the national average. From mid-July through September, however, days are generally dry and sunny. The warm weather often continues into fall, with cooler temperatures at night, until the rainy season kicks off in mid-October. Spring is mild, wet and green, just as you'd expect from the Evergreen State. |
