Seattle woke Thursday under fog and mist, with temperatures around 54 degrees at Boeing Field. The gray start should give way to sunny skies and afternoon highs in the low to mid-70s, but the dry spell is on borrowed time.

Fog Clears Before A Warm Afternoon

Low clouds and fog are expected to thin by late morning as light winds give way to a mild afternoon. The latest outlook is a meaningful update from Wednesday’s Hoodline forecast, with Thursday now shaping up as the last notably warm day before the next weather shift.

Rain Moves In Friday

Rain is forecast Friday, with a high near 61 degrees. Breezy southwesterly winds are expected across Puget Sound as the front moves through, while rainfall totals in Seattle are expected to stay below a tenth of an inch, according to the National Weather Service.

Friday night brings a 40% chance of additional light rain, with temperatures dropping to around 49. The front is expected to bring breezier conditions around Puget Sound, while stronger marine impacts remain focused on coastal waters and the Strait of Juan de Fuca.

Cooler, Brighter Weekend

Saturday could bring a few showers before turning partly sunny, with a high near 59. Sunday looks sunnier but cooler, topping out near 60 after a chilly morning low around 46.

Mostly Dry Into Monday

Sunny weather is expected Monday, October 12, with a high near 61 degrees. Another chance of light rain is forecast Tuesday into Wednesday.
