The Return of Sidewalk Puddles

Good morning on a soggy Monday I hope everyone had an awesome Easter.  Looks like the puddles have returned after a nice quiet weekend with most places in the mid 60s and even low 70s on Saturday.  
It is late April and spring has sprung? The weather is becoming more tame, but today we're all going to have that lingering aftertaste of winter.  This seems like a wet one and packing a punch too.  The National Weather Service of Seattle has issued a WIND ADVISORY (they love using caps) IN EFFECT FROM NOON TODAY UNTIL 9PM THIS EVENING. Winds are expected from the S SW at 20 -30 mph gusting near 45mph. So if you are grabbing lunch in Downtown Bellevue expect a mixed bag of weather popcorn; wind, rain, periods of drying, and hold off on the hot, golden sun... an active weather day coupled with a sun diet perhaps?

Update 5:00 pm:
By the National Weather Service ...WIND ADVISORY IS CANCELLED FOR WESTERN WASHINGTON... as of 11:16am. But with that said it'll be breezy, just not enough for an advisory. The bulk of the moisture is heading towards the Cascades dumping buckets of snow there. Sometimes diets, especially with me and my hot dog diet, do not last. The sun is now mixing in with what's left of the weather popcorn and drying will be the continuing trend until tomorrow morning for the Puget Sound Area (except in the convergence zone.) I'll let you guess what happens next.  Another bag of weather popcorn, but this time around the more tame variety.
