Seattle, WA – If you live in Seattle, you already know the drill—cool, cloudy, and a little drizzly is just another day in the Pacific Northwest. Thursday will be no exception, with mostly gray skies and a slight chance of showers throughout the day. It’s not going to be a full-on rainstorm, but you might feel a few drops here and there, especially in the morning and evening. Temperatures will stay on the chilly side, hovering in the upper 40s to low 50s, so it’s a good idea to throw on a light jacket before heading out.
Now, if you’re hoping for some sunshine, I hate to break it to you—this weekend isn’t looking much better. By Saturday and Sunday, a new weather system will move in, bringing steadier showers and that classic damp, chilly feel we all know so well. It won’t be a complete washout, but expect on-and-off rain throughout the weekend—you know, the kind that tricks you into thinking it’s dry just long enough for you to leave your umbrella at home.
Here’s What to Expect:
-
Thursday: A mostly cloudy day with cool temperatures in the upper 40s to low 50s. There’s a small chance of rain, but nothing too heavy—just enough to keep things damp.
-
Friday: A slight break in the action! Mostly cloudy, but likely drier than Thursday. If you’ve got outdoor plans or errands, Friday is your best shot at avoiding the rain.
-
Saturday & Sunday: Here comes the rain! A more persistent system moves in, bringing steadier showers and a chilly, damp feel all weekend. The rain won’t be non-stop, but expect periods of wet weather mixed in with brief dry spells.
What This Means for You:
- Thursday’s rain is hit-or-miss, so you might not need your umbrella—but you also might. (Seattle weather loves to keep us guessing.)
- Friday is your best shot at a dry(ish) day, so if you need to get things done outside, plan accordingly.
- Saturday and Sunday will be wet, so if you’re heading out, grab a rain jacket, waterproof shoes, and maybe an extra cup of coffee for warmth.
- Thursday: Cloudy and cool, with a slight chance of showers.
- Friday: Mostly dry, still gray, but the best day to be outdoors.
- Saturday & Sunday: A classic Seattle weekend—cool, wet, and gray with steady showers.
