The National Weather Service in Seattle has predicted a week scattered with showers and some peeks of sun. The city, standing under a gloomy overcast sky at 52°F and grappling with a persistent dampness fueled by 66% humidity, is staring at another bout of scattered showers, according to the latest update from NWS. The forecast cut right to the chase: overnight showers likely after 5 a.m., with a south southeast wind gusting around 7 mph, and a 60% chance of precipitation.
Monday, with a high near 61 degrees and a robust 90% chance of showers before 11 a.m. Come nightfall, the likelihood of showers dips slightly to 60%, teasing Seattleites with a chance to enjoy a mostly cloudy dusk. "New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible," the NWS report dryly notes.
Seattle will witness an 80% chance of showers come Tuesday. As night swings around, the chance of showers remains at a 50% probability, predominantly before 11 p.m. The NWS describes Wednesday as partly sunny with a slight reprieve in the rain, meriting a high near 64 before slipping back into the possibility of late-night showers.
The oscillation between showers and sun seems to set the tone for the week, as Thursday may rise to a mostly sunny zenith, with a promising high near 67 degrees. However, the city will return to its nocturnal cloudiness, laying the groundwork for Friday's "slight chance of showers after 11am." At night, that chance ramps up again, spoiling the arrival of the weekend with the threat of more rain. "Mostly cloudy, with a low around 49," the NWS report indicated.
Saturday brings a slight chance of showers, but expect some sunshine with highs around 65°F. Light rain may return Saturday night, though nothing major is expected. Sunday looks more promising with mostly sunny skies and a high near 70°F.
