Damp weather with mostly cloudy skies in Seattle this weekend

Seattle weather: Showers possible, coastal thunderstorms

The weather will be significantly quieter this weekend around western Washington compared to the rounds of windstorms this week. There will still be times of lowland rain, isolated and mountain snow on Saturday and Sunday, but the weather won’t be nearly as impactful as what we experienced at times this last week – not even close.

Showery and slightly breezy weather is expected in Seattle on Saturday.

It may be slightly breezy at times this weekend, but the winds aren’t expected to cause any big problems. This is excellent news following our strong winds in the last week.

Today, be on the lookout for pockets of heavy rain. In some cases, there could be small hail or graupel along with the rain. We also can’t rule out isolated cases of thunder: the best chance for this will be over the Olympic Peninsula and the coast.

Stormy weather is possible west of Seattle on Saturday.
