Crowds is a score out of 100 where higher is quieter. It counts public-holiday clusters in PE as well as at Seattle, which is why this table differs from the same one read from another country. A busy month is a crowded one, not a bad one — usually it is crowded because the weather is good. Crowds alone never make a month “avoid”: that is reserved for weather worth skipping.

The year in Seattle
Seattle experiences a temperate maritime climate, characterized by cool, wet winters and warm, dry summers. Travelers should be prepared for unpredictable weather, especially in the shoulder seasons.
| Busiest |
mid Jun to mid Sep — This period features the warmest weather and longest days, attracting the highest number of tourists.
|
|---|---|
| Quieter, still good |
early May to mid Jun — Late spring offers pleasant weather with fewer tourists.
mid Sep to mid Oct — Early autumn provides mild temperatures but fewer visitors compared to summer.

Written by a language model from the climate figures above. The month-by-month table is measured — ten years of ERA5 readings and published holiday calendars — and where the two disagree, the table is the one to believe.
