The City of Seattle woke up to a blanket of freezing fog this morning as the National Weather Service reported visibilities as low as a quarter-mile, and temperatures hovering around the 30°F mark. According to the latest update from the National Weather Service station in Seattle, WA, residents should expect patchy dense fog to give way to mostly cloudy skies before the day warms to a high near 48°F. Light winds from the north will continue at speeds of 3 to 5 mph throughout the day.
As the fog lifts, the remainder of the day promises to usher in a gradual clearing, setting the stage for a partly cloudy night with lows around 34°F. The consistency of calm winds is projected to extend into the latter half of the week. Predictions for Wednesday forecast sunny conditions and highs approaching 47°F, as calm air continues to prevail.
The relative tranquility of the weather pattern appears to hold in the days to come, with the National Weather Service outlining a stretch of partly sunny to mostly sunny days, each boasting highs in the mid-40s. While the evenings will cool to lows in the mid-30s, conditions are expected to remain dry until the weekend. Thursday and Thursday night will follow suit, with highs near 44°F and lows around 35°F under a mixture of clouds and calm winds.
Come Saturday, Seattle's skies will remain mostly sunny during the day, with temperatures once again reaching a pleasant high near 46°F. As the night descends, however, there's a slight chance of rain and snow after 10 pm with temperatures dropping to around 35°F. The city's respite from precipitation may come to an end Sunday as the forecast suggests a chance of rain and highs resting comfortably near 46°F, followed by a continuation of rain chances and cloud-covered skies into the beginning of next week.
