The National Weather Service in Seattle predicts a wet spell ahead for the city, with rain forecasted to dampen the weekend and continue into the coming week. As per their latest update, Seattle dwellers should brace for gray skies and persistent showers, accompanied by moderately brisk winds.
Seattle's overnight weather will feature a 30 percent chance of rain, maintaining a steady temperature around 57 degrees with gusts reaching upwards of 31 mph. Expected to fully usher in the rain by Saturday morning, the NWS forecasts a 100% chance of precipitation with new rainfall amounts measuring less than a tenth of an inch possible. South wind speeds are to quite consistently blow, gusting as high as 30 mph.
Saturday night won't provide much respite with rain predicted to continue, mainly before 1 am, and a low settling around 57 degrees. In an unwelcome sequence, Sunday and Monday will almost unfailingly continue with rain, as the chance of precipitation stays high at 90 percent. The start of a new week won't mark a break in the weather pattern, with Monday's high to struggle to reach 57 degrees under rainy skies.
Looking ahead, there's a glimpse of reprieve with Tuesday projecting a slight chance of rain but mostly sunny conditions, heralding a high near 55. This brief dry spell might extend into Wednesday, with mostly sunny skies forecasted despite a looming chance of mid-week rain.
However, by Thursday, Seattleites should again expect to confront rain, as the chance of precipitation rises in the latter part of the week. Indeed, "rain likely" is the phrase marking next Friday's outlook, suggesting that residents may need to keep their umbrellas at arm's reach for the foreseeable future, as per the National Weather Service's detailed forecast.
