Is Pullman weather like Seattle?

No. Pullman is east of the Cascades in the dry Palouse, so it is colder and far less rainy, with early-season snow more likely than persistent drizzle.

How cold does Martin Stadium get?

Late-season kickoffs are often below freezing, and at 2,500 feet with clear skies the temperature drops quickly once the sun goes down.

Is Martin Stadium windy?

It can be. The open Palouse hills give wind a clear path, though the partially sunken bowl shelters the field somewhat compared with a fully exposed site.
