The National Weather Service (NWS) is predicting weather fluctuations in Seattle in the coming days. Today’s forecast sees a high near the comforting 63 degrees, though the calmness may be brief as clouds start to gather, readying the skies for a wet interlude. However, the NWS warns that by tonight there's a 20 percent chance of rain after the early hours. The temperature is set to dip to around 47 degrees, with the wind changing partners from northeast to southeast as the evening unfolds.

Rain will be expected during the weekend, with NWS projecting a 60 percent probability of showers Saturday, starting to impose after 11:00 A.M. This will usher in cooler highs around 56 degrees. The likelihood of rain declines on Saturday night to 30 percent before 11:00 P.M., but not before the day reaches its less chilly low near 45 degrees.

The workweek ushers back some sun, promising a brighter Sunday with a high of 62 degrees, according to the NWS. While Monday starts with a sunnier disposition and highs reaching a near perfect 67 degrees, the chance of rain will possibly return post-11:00 P.M.
