Seattle is waking Saturday to mostly cloudy skies and temperatures in the mid-50s, but the gray start is expected to give way to a mostly sunny afternoon. The city should reach about 67 degrees, with no meaningful rain chance and a light north wind.
Sun Takes Over By Saturday Afternoon
Clouds should thin through the morning before sunshine takes over during the afternoon, according to the National Weather Service. Winds will stay manageable at around 8 mph from the north, making for a comfortable day outdoors once the morning chill fades.
Sunday Brings The Warmest Weekend Day
Sunday looks even warmer, with mostly sunny skies and a high near 70 degrees. Sunday night should remain mostly clear, with temperatures dropping to around 53 degrees before a mild Monday afternoon near 68.
Dry Stretch Holds Through Next Week
Seattle stays generally dry Tuesday through Thursday, though highs ease back into the mid-60s. Overnight lows will generally sit in the low to mid-50s, so early-morning commuters and evening walkers may still want a light jacket.
A wetter pattern may develop by the end of next week, though the timing remains uncertain. Friday is expected to be partly sunny with a high near 62, a cooler finish than the weekend; Hoodline's October 2 forecast called for a mostly sunny afternoon near 70 degrees.
No watches, warnings or advisories are in effect for Seattle. For now, the practical forecast is simple: cloudy mornings, sunny afternoons and one of those rare October weekends when the rain jacket can stay home.
