A couple nicer days are ahead for Western Washington, including a mostly dry weekend! Temperatures will climb to near average after a string of colder days. Saturday’s highs are below, from the European model.

Expect similar highs on Friday and Sunday as well. A nice few days, with highs in the upper 50s to low 60s for the lowlands, are ahead!

However, it will not be long before rain returns. Clouds increase Sunday afternoon, with showers arriving Sunday evening to Monday morning, likely lasting through Wednesday. Below are the expected rain totals through Wednesday evening from the GFS model.

Totals are expected to be highest on the coast and north of Everett (0.5 to 1.5 inches), and around 0.2 to 0.5 inches in the lowlands. This is a more typical spring pattern for the Pacific Northwest. However, highs will be a bit cooler to start next week, dipping to the low 50s on Tuesday.

Enjoy the nicer weather for Friday, Saturday, and most of Sunday!
