Seattle weather: Beautiful fall sunshine on Monday

The beginning of the week will feature chilly mornings and sunny afternoons with warm high temperatures, around 70 degrees.

A ridge of high pressure will keep the Pacific Northwest dry and warm on Monday and Tuesday. High temperatures will be in the 70s for most of the central and south Puget Sound.

What's next:

Wednesday and Thursday will bring more clouds and a chance for some light showers. However, it should be more dry than wet.

A better chance for widespread rain showers hits Friday through the weekend.

This weekend, snow levels could dip to 4,000 to 5,000 feet. We could see our first dusting of snow at the higher passes.

After a couple of warm and sunny days in Seattle, it will cool and turn wet by the end of the week. (FOX 13 Seattle)
