The climate in the Port Ludlow/Bridgehaven area is warmer with more sunny days than many other areas of the Northwest. The daily temperature is about 4 degrees warmer than Seattle's and it get less rain. Port Ludlow and Bridgehaven average 200 "Sunshine days" per year. The moderate year-round climate results from the influence of the water temperatures of Puget Sound and the protection of the Olympic Mountains. Mild summer temperatures rise to a few 80 days in August, and winters are seldom below freezing, with only a few light snowfalls each year. Its lower rainfall is because of its location in the "rain-shadow" of the Olympic Mountains. Rain clouds from the Pacific Ocean drop most of their rain on the Olympic Range and have less moisture left as they pass over the eastern peninsula.
