The National Weather Service in Seattle, Washington, is predicting a wet forecast for the area with a series of rainy days ahead. Today, the skies hang heavy with clouds, and the city feels the weight of a 47°F chill, edged by an 89% humidity that seems to soak into every bone.
As of their last update at 5:53 AM PST, the NWS anticipates rain is likely, particularly before 1 pm, with the chance of precipitation today at 70%. According to NWS Seattle, less than a tenth of an inch of new rainfall is expected. Tonight, the likelihood of rain increases to 80%, accompanied by an east southeast wind blowing gently at 3 to 5 mph.
Thursday's weather seems to promise no respite, with rain anticipated throughout the day and a 100% chance of precipitation. It's a certainty that the umbrellas will be out in force, grappling with the light south wind of 3 to 7 mph. Those hoping to stay dry can expect new precipitation amounts falling between a quarter and a half of an inch.
Continuing the trend, Thursday night will also bring rain, with a 90% chance of precipitation, and Seattleites should brace for additional rainfall between a tenth and a quarter of an inch, as a south wind of around 9 mph sweeps the city. As the week plods on, Friday and the weekend offer little change, with a 90% chance of rain persisting through Saturday. Temperatures will hover around the mid-50s, providing slight relief from the colder bite felt earlier in the week.
Seattle's residents must endure these showers a while longer, with the forecast through next Tuesday predicting mostly cloudy skies and continued chances of rain. Day temperatures are expected to range from the low to mid-50s, while nighttime lows may dip into the low 40s. For those counting on outdoor activities or any respite from the gray, damp monotony, patience and perhaps a sturdy raincoat will be necessary companions.
