The Brief

    • Tuesday and Wednesday will be mainly dry and cool in the Puget Sound area, with temperatures in the mid-40s and mostly cloudy skies.
    • A weak system may bring light showers to the Washington Coast on Wednesday, but the rest of western Washington will remain dry.
    • Widespread rain is expected Thursday, with Friday being the wettest day as subtropical moisture raises temperatures to the mid-50s and snow levels to 5,000-6,000 feet; next week may bring a wetter pattern with potential river flooding.

By the numbers:

Friday looks like our wettest day of the week, as a system taps into some subtropical moisture. Lowland temperatures will be warmer, into the mid-50s, and snow levels will climb to 5,000 to 6,000 feet.

What's next:

Weather models are hinting at a much wetter weather pattern next week. Current long-range rain forecasts give several rivers a 50/50 chance of reaching action stage. Some could reach flood stage, so stay tuned to the forecast as we get closer.
