The National Weather Service in Seattle has declared a mostly sunny day ahead for Seattleites, with a high creeping up to a comfortable 71 degrees. The perennial Seattle chill still clings with a notable humidity level at 87%. The forecast, punctuated by light south-southwest winds, claims to bring in a low around 56 degrees as the night encroaches, so those evening strolls by the Sound will require a little bundling up, according to the latest update from the National Weather Service.
Looking towards the week, Monday and Tuesday are shaping up with clear skies and peak temperatures hovering in the mid-70s; factoring in the light variable winds, it's an optimal window for any outdoor plans, a pause in the otherwise grey drapes of Seattle's usual cloud cover. Monday night, the city will experience a slight cooldown and a visit from the north-northwest wind, but nothing a Seattleite can't handle.
By midweek, grab those umbrellas that you stashed away, because the NWS forecasts a 20 percent chance of showers Tuesday night, increasing to a 30 percent chance of rain by Wednesday morning. The promise of sun seems shy for the remainder of the week; partially cloudy days with occasional showers are slipping into the calendar like unwanted guests, ensuring a mostly cloudy Thursday with an accompanying chance of rain.
As the workweek wraps up, Friday follows suit with another "slight chance of showers" but also offers a glimpse of the sun. The NWS projects a mostly sunny Saturday with a high near a plush 75 degrees. The evenings throughout are keeping in the mid-50s.
