Seattle residents can expect the overcast skies to clear up later today, according to the National Weather Service (NWS). With a gradual transition to sunnier conditions, the high is anticipated to reach a comfortable 72 degrees. Winds are forecasted to shift from south to west in the afternoon, maintaining a gentle pace of around 5 mph. NWS Seattle provided the last update at 6:35 AM PDT, noting the current 81% humidity and a dewpoint of 48°F.
As the evening approaches, the weather is expected to remain calm, transitioning to a partly cloudy night with lows around 55 degrees, calm winds will become a southerly breeze post-midnight that brings a slight change of drizzle tomorrow before 11 am but the clouds should break away giving rise to mostly sunny skies with a gusty south wind reaching upwards of 20 mph during the day. The NWS predicts temperatures will be slightly cooler, with highs around 68 degrees on Tuesday, followed by partly cloudy conditions and lows near 50 degrees Tuesday night.
The rest of the week seems to favor those with plans to be outdoors. Wednesday will bring mostly sunny skies and a high neighboring 67 degrees, according to NWS Seattle's detailed forecast. The evening will continue to be clear with the temperature dropping to around 48 degrees. Thursday's outlook maintains the sunny disposition with an expected high near 71 degrees.
However, the weather will shift as we approach the weekend, introducing a higher probability of showers beginning Friday and persisting through Sunday, with the highs dropping back to the low 60s on Saturday—a slight dip from the warmer conditions earlier in the week and night temperatures hovering consistently around the 50-degree mark, for those making plans, it might be prudent to have an umbrella on hand despite the chance of rain being modest at best. The week will end on a partly sunny note, with a slight chance of showers and a high near 65 degrees on Sunday.
