Seattle started Monday, September 14, under mostly cloudy skies with temperatures around 57 degrees, but the gray morning is expected to loosen its grip by afternoon. The city should reach about 68 degrees, with only a 3% chance of rain.

Clouds Thin Out Monday Afternoon

The National Weather Service Seattle office expects partly sunny skies Monday, with south-southwest winds at 3 to 8 mph. Monday night turns mostly cloudy again and bottoms near 55 degrees, making for a mild but decidedly unglamorous evening.

Tuesday Brings A Brief Shower Chance

Tuesday could open with a little light rain before 7 a.m., but the chance of precipitation is just 20%. Skies should turn mostly sunny later, with a high near 67 degrees and light north winds.

Sunny Stretch Arrives Wednesday

Seattle gets its clearest break of the week Wednesday, when sunny skies push the high to about 73 degrees. Wednesday night should be mostly clear, with temperatures falling to around 54 degrees.

Thursday and Friday continue the sunny pattern, with highs near 73 and overnight lows in the mid-50s. The forecast shows no meaningful rain chance on either day, giving the city a welcome run of dry weather after the early-week clouds.

Mild Weekend Weather Follows

Saturday and Sunday look mostly sunny, with highs around 70 degrees and only a minimal chance of rain. Saturday night may turn partly cloudy, while overnight temperatures remain in the mid-50s.

No watches, warnings or advisories are listed for Seattle. The week’s main weather story is a quiet one: clouds early, a small shower chance Tuesday morning, and a sunny return to low-70s temperatures by midweek.
