The Emerald City is in for a string of crisp, clear days. As sun-worshippers bask in the break from the expected gloom, residents can look forward to a steady climb in temperatures.

Earlier today, the NWS detailed a forecast that Seattleites could practically wear as a badge of honor, with sunny skies dominating the week, and the mercury expected to rise to a comfortable 62 degrees today, under the watchful gaze of a light wind, turning north. Temperatures tonight will dip to around 45 degrees, a soft reminder of spring's tender coolness.

Tracing the steps towards the weekend, Thursday promises even more warmth with a sunny high near 70, while the workweek finale on Friday will dazzle with a high near 77 under, you guessed it, more unblemished sunshine. Evenings will be ushered in with clear skies and lows timelessly hovering in the mid-50s.

Leisure seekers making plans for the weekend have cause for cheer—Saturday and Sunday hold onto sunny highs around 78 and 72 degrees, respectively. And, even as the new week approaches, the clear patterns largely persist, although Monday will see a gentle shift to partly sunny skies and a modest daytime high of 65, fair for any outdoor escapade.

The otherwise uninterrupted streak of clear Seattle skies will face Monday's close with an emerging cloud cover, and by Tuesday, the city might witness a curtain call with a slight chance of showers. The high for Tuesday, if you're making bets on the weather, will sit near 63, according to NWS Seattle.

Despite the encroaching work week, the approaching possibility of rain is merely a whisper against the symphony of sun-drenched days ahead. For those entrenched in the often gray-skied reality of the Pacific Northwest, this week's forecast reads like a rare celestial alignment. So, grab your sunglasses—Seattle's about to serve up a slice of summer in spring.
