Was einpacken?
We have umbrellas!
In Seattle, it's better to be safe than sorry and pack your rain gear. It usually doesn't rain too hard and is more of a light drizzle so you can still go out and about. We do have extra umbrellas if you need!
Was einpacken?
If it's not between July 4 - early September, it gets cold!
Bring warm clothes! Beanies help a lot!
Was einpacken?
Bring a rain jacket!
There is always a good chance you'll encounter rain while you're here.
