Seattle weather: 80 degree temperatures on the horizon

While we're forecasting highs in the 80s for the middle of next workweek, Memorial Day weekend will feature initial warmth followed by showers on Monday.

As you're enjoying the beautiful weather this weekend, remember to always wear a life vest when you're out on the water. Year-round in western Washington, water temperatures remain dangerously cold. Cold water shock is a real threat. Please be careful!

There might be an isolated shower or thunderstorm in Seattle on Monday.
