Good Saturday evening!
The dog days of summer are here! A heat wave will grip the region, triggering a HEAT ADVISORY for most of Western WA. Highs will climb to the 80s & 90s. Tuesday will be the hottest day. After that, we get some mid-week heat relief.
A ridge of high pressure will build and bring back the summer sizzle! Morning clouds along the Pacific coastline will be overpowered by the afternoon sun. The rest of Western WA wakes up to sunshine with some high clouds. Daytime highs in the mid to upper 80s and low 90s. The Southwest Interior and Cascade foothills will be warmest with lots of 90s. Overnight temps will be warm – offering no relief. Low to mid 60s which means sweaty sleeping for those of us without A/C.
Monday gets even warmer! Sunshine and high temps in the upper 80s and low to mid 90s. Lows will be in the low to mid 60s.
Tuesday will be the warmest day of the week! Daytime highs in the upper 80s and low to mid 90s. Lows will be in the low to mid 60s.
Wednesday is when we change it up and tone it back to the 70s. A weak disturbance will bring back clouds. Rain chances for Thursday and Friday but right now it doesn’t look like much measurable rain.
