Seattle is starting Sunday, November 1, under cloudy skies near 46 degrees, with a brighter turn expected later today. The forecast calls for a high near 53 and no rain, but fog is the immediate issue for early travelers before a dry, mild pattern settles in through Tuesday.
Fog First, Sun Later
An National Weather Service Dense Fog Advisory remains in effect through 10 a.m. for Seattle and nearby Puget Sound lowlands, with the thickest pockets expected outside downtown and along parts of the I-5 corridor. Drivers should be ready for sudden visibility drops and leave extra time, especially in low-lying areas.
Clouds should thin into partly sunny skies Sunday afternoon, with light north-northeast winds and temperatures easing back toward 50 degrees later in the day. Patchy fog returns after 10 p.m. Sunday, followed by a low near 40.
Quiet Start Before Rain Arrives
Monday stays cloudy with a high near 53, while Tuesday brings mostly cloudy skies and a slightly warmer high near 57. Both days look dry, giving Seattle a short break from the region’s usual November wet-weather routine.
Rain chances rise Wednesday, with light rain likely after 4 p.m. and a 73% chance of precipitation. Thursday brings a smaller chance of rain, while rain is again likely Thursday night and Friday.
The new outlook marks a shift from the brighter Halloween setup covered in Hoodline's earlier forecast, with fog now the near-term concern and a wetter second half of the week taking shape. For Sunday plans, a light jacket and extra patience on the morning drive should do the trick.
