Seattle gets one more relatively mild, mostly dry day Wednesday before the forecast takes a distinctly wetter turn. Wednesday should be partly sunny, with a high near 67 and little rain expected.

Rain Moves In Thursday Afternoon

Thursday starts with rain expected in the afternoon and evening, with steadier rain Thursday night, according to National Weather Service.

Friday Brings Showers And Possible Thunderstorms

Friday brings rain continuing into the morning, with showers also possible. Cooler temperatures and unsettled weather are expected, as reported by National Weather Service.

The sharper timing is an update to Hoodline's Tuesday forecast, which had already flagged a cooler and wetter late week.

Weekend Offers A Brief Dry Break

Saturday remains unsettled, with additional precipitation and cooler temperatures. Sunday looks partly sunny near 61, though precipitation chances may continue through Monday.

For local plans, Wednesday is the easiest day for outdoor errands, while Thursday evening and Friday call for rain gear and extra patience on the roads.
