The National Weather Service in Seattle predicts a mostly cloudy start to the day, with skies clearing up as we head into the afternoon. Temperatures are expected to reach a modest high of 56 degrees, accompanied by a light breeze turning north northwest around five mph later in the day. The National Weather Service website reported that humidity is 88% this morning, and visibility remains unobstructed at 10 miles.

The weather news is mixed but mostly favorable for those looking forward to the weekend. Friday promises sunshine and a comfortable high of 64 degrees, with calm winds. However, night temperatures will drop to a cool 40 degrees before gently climbing again. Meanwhile, Saturday is a partly sunny day with a high nearing 67 degrees, though the night will see temperatures moderately fall to about 49 degrees. The semblance of perfection in the meteorological forecast is marred, come Sunday, by a 50 percent chance of rain, signaling a mostly cloudy day with a high around 61.

The rain doesn't plan on stopping with the close of the weekend. Sunday night brings rain and a gloomy and wet start to the next week. The NWS forecast details a rainy Monday with a high of around 56 degrees, and the showers are likely to persist into Monday night, keeping the low near 46 degrees. The rain pattern will continue, with Tuesday also drenched in showers, maintaining the cloudy cover with a high near 55 degrees.

As we nudge midweek, Wednesday holds a glimmer of hope, with just a chance of rain amidst the mostly cloudy conditions and a slightly warmer high of 59 degrees.

With a temperamental sky over Seattle, carrying an umbrella seems to be the wisest accessory for the days ahead.
