FIFA World Cup forecast, plus major warmth coming to Seattle
FOX 13 Seattle Chief Meteorologist Brian MacMillan has your 7-day forecast, plus the temperatures for the FIFA World Cup matches today in Los Angeles and Toronto!
SEATTLE - An area of high pressure building over the Pacific Northwest will continue strengthening through the weekend, setting the stage for the warmest weather we've seen so far this year. Sunshine will dominate the forecast, and temperatures will climb each day through Monday.
Temperatures will stay cool with clear skies Friday night. Overnight lows early Saturday will be close to 50 degrees.

Big warm-up coming to Seattle
Saturday will bring a noticeable warm-up with highs reaching the upper 70s to mid-80s across much of the interior. Light winds and abundant sunshine will make for a fantastic day to be outside.
The real heat arrives Sunday as the ridge of high pressure settles directly overhead. At the same time, offshore winds will help boost temperatures even higher. Afternoon highs will surge well into the 80s for most inland communities, while some of the traditionally warmer locations in the Southwest Interior and Lower Chehalis Valley could reach the lower 90s.
Several locations have a good chance of tying or breaking daily temperature records on Sunday. A Heat Advisory will take effect at 11 a.m. Sunday and remain in place through early Tuesday morning.

Seattle hits the 90s on Monday
The hottest day of the stretch still looks to be Monday. While coastal communities will stay cooler thanks to afternoon sea breezes and temperatures in the 70s, much of the interior will see highs ranging from the mid-80s to mid-90s. Overnight temperatures Monday night will remain unusually mild as well, with many locations around the Seattle metro area staying above 60 degrees.

A stronger push of marine air is expected to arrive on Tuesday as onshore flow returns to Western Washington.
The cooling trend continues through the middle of next week as the marine layer deepens. Afternoon sunshine should still break through, but we will return to more typical June temperatures, with highs in the upper 60s to mid-70s inland on Wednesday and Thursday.
