Tomorrow will remain mostly cloudy with highs climbing into the mid-70s. Dry weather is expected for most communities, although clouds will continue to linger thanks to onshore flow. While a few sprinkles are possible, the steadier showers will primarily develop along the coast, Olympic Peninsula, and portions of the North Sound.
