Overnight lows will stay in the upper 30s to low 40s. A few areas of patchy fog in the South Sound is possible. 

Sunshine will be the main story along with the first 60 degree day for Western Washington. We will start to see gusty winds in the Cascade Mountain passes on Friday evening. 

The warmest temperatures will be in the South Sound, but everywhere will warm into the mid to low 60s.
