Dry July continues, but some rain is on the way

SEATTLE -- Today will be a lot like yesterday -- morning clouds with afternoon sun and highs a little warmer than yesterday's 77, around 80 for Seattle.

Tomorrow will be somewhat the same, but by the afternoon we'll see some high clouds roll in and there is a chance of thunderstorms in the Cascades that could waft into the area in the afternoon.

Things change up as we say "Hello" to August.  Thursday, there is a chance of showers late in the day, highs cooler, mid 70s.  Friday looks rainy at times, with highs in the low 70s. Showers could linger into Saturday morning.  But most of our SeaFair Weekend looks nice -- morning clouds with afternoon sun and highs in the mid-to-upper 70s.

Monday will be similar.
