Weekend cool down

SEATTLE -- Today will be another sunny day with highs above normal (which is 77 this time of year).

Highs today will be in the upper 70s and low 80s, a little cooler than yesterday's high of 88 at Sea-Tac. The weekend will be more comfortable.

We'll start out with morning clouds (Nature's air conditioning) but see lots of afternoon sunshine and top out in the mid 70s. Perfect for the Torchlight Parade & Run, and the Capitol Hill Block Party!

Monday and Tuesday will be pretty much the same.  Wednesday and Thursday, we will see more morning cloud and perhaps a little drizzle.  Highs will remain in the low-to-mid 70s.
