Seattle weather: cloudy and cool end to the weekend

FOX 13 Meteorologist Abby Acone has your seven-day forecast.

Cloudy weather is in store in Seattle for much of Sunday, but late afternoon sunbreaks are a possibility.

The murky, gray skies today are due to a few reasons, including the fact that westerly winds are underway. This helps promote the cloudiness in western Washington. Highs will be running below average, only climbing to the low 70s this afternoon.

We can't rule out a light, passing shower or a few raindrops in parts of the region today; however, the showers will be primarily south of Seattle. This could potentially impact communities surrounding Tacoma and Olympia. Parts of the coast could experience occasional sprinkles. Even thunderstorms are possible today over the North Cascades.

Tomorrow and Tuesday, the chance for showers and isolated thunderstorms over the mountains continues. Highs in Seattle will gradually climb to the upper 70s.

Behind an area of low pressure, temperatures will spike to the low to mid 80s on Wednesday. The 80s linger into Thursday before the 70s resume on Friday.
