Seattle’s soaking Sunday set the tone for the week ahead, when rain is forecast to bookend a glimpse of blue skies.
The slow-moving system that drenched the Seattle area on Sunday, though dreary, brought no severe weather warnings. It is expected to camp out over the region throughout Monday and into Tuesday, dropping more precipitation on the region, with highs in the mid-50s and lows in the mid-40s.
By Tuesday night, conditions should clear up, giving way to a cloudy, dry, springlike Wednesday, with temperatures potentially climbing into the low 60s, according to Logan Howard, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Seattle.
Another round of showers could visit Seattle on Thursday, bringing with it a chance of light snow in the higher elevations of Western Washington.
The forecast is less certain for Friday and the weekend, but there’s a chance for more showers — as well as a chance for some sun.
