Washington State, encompassing the Seattle metro area and extending to its diverse coastlines and mountain ranges, experiences a range of weather patterns. While known for rain, the state also faces high winds, especially along the coast and during autumnal storms, making durable windows a priority.
Washington's climate is characterized by wet, mild winters and drier summers, but it is also prone to strong windstorms, particularly during the fall and winter months. These wind events, often originating from the Pacific Ocean, can generate significant forces and carry debris.
