Seattle weather: Dry start for Tuesday, rain returns Wednesday
We will see mostly cloudy skies Tuesday with highs in the upper 40s to low 50s, with showers returning by the late evening hours.
SEATTLE - An incoming front will return rain to our region after a two-week hiatus. Tonight's front will be rather weak, most falling apart while moving onshore, but light amounts are forecast to fall. Light snow is also expected in the passes overnight, with a brief possibility of freezing rain.
Incoming front will increase rain chances overnight after being rain free for 2 weeks.
Along with the chance of light rain and mountain snow, winds will pick up with the front. Gusts will range between 25-35 mph inland with higher gusts near 45mph along the coast.
Gusty winds at times as front moves onshore tonight.
What's next:
We finally get a break in our frosty mornings! The warm front along with more clouds will help moderate our overnight lows above freezing.
Not as chilly overnight as more clouds and light rain arrive.
Seattle and the surrounding area has not seen rain in two weeks, but that changes Tuesday night as a front arrives along with more mild temperatures.
Rain finally returns to the forecast Wednesday morning in Seattle. (FOX13 Seattle)
