In the past 74 years of data, it has rained on July 29 four times, the least amount of recorded rain throughout the year. Official Seattle weather records go back to 1945.
Today is also one of two days Seattle has hit 100 degrees or warmer.
On this day back in 2009, SeaTac recorded its warmest temperature ever when the high topped 103 degrees. The other 100-degree day was July 20, 1994.
Today's forecast calls for sunshine, no rain, and highs in the upper 70s to lower 80s.
