All right everyone, happy Tuesday afternoon.
I'm KING5 meteorologist Adam Claybon.
Starting to brighten up a little bit
after this morning's marine layer.
Again, that should be a theme for tomorrow
morning and maybe even to start off
Thursday morning before we'll get more.
That full-fledged sunshine throughout
a longer portion of the day could
lead to more of a warm up too,
especially once we head into
the beginning of next
work week. More on that,
plus some of those storm chances that
we have across the mountains again.
First, let's take a look
out at Hurricane Ridge.
I'm going to be opening up back again.
They're going to be able to see more of.
Those skies that are clear and blue,
plus people could be able to
get up there and get some nice
views out of that too. Otherwise
though, I think the storm chances will stay
well off towards the West over the Cascades.
And even then as we go on into maybe
even the eastern slopes of the Cascades,
that's where your best chances
of showers and storms will be.
Right now, looking live over Seattle,
you can see more of this clearing skies
starting to take shape too, because.
Well, we're starting to see the sun a
do its job and it's burning off that
marine layer which is going to leave
plenty of sunshine for the rest of today,
even noticing some of that out
along the course the coast,
sorry for Westport as we head
into our early Tuesday afternoon
school on that side right now,
Granite Falls still going to take some time,
but I think as we go deeper on into the day,
we'll get more that sunshine as well.
Here's the thunderstorm outlook you can
see generally over the Crest of the
Cascades and eastward is where we're
going to have those better chances.
Including parts of Idaho and
over towards Montana,
spotty afternoon storms and also
maybe some small hail associated
with some of those storms.
We still have onshore flow going
and that's going to keep things
that relatively comfortable.
As far as our temperatures back up
around those seasonal averages again
later this afternoon as of right
around the noon hour, here we are,
temperatures upper 50s to low 60s.
So if you're heading out to lunch,
should be fairly comfortable.
We'll get up into those low to
mid 70s this afternoon.
Still some clearing skies
later on into the night,
at least for the first part of the night.
Then those clouds come back in late tonight.
Tonight,
with that marine layer heading back in,
will drop back down into the 50s.
Speaking of this evening and tonight,
Nationals and Mariners game two,
first pitch again at 6:40 will
be right around those mid 70s.
To start off,
the game will drop into the mid
60s by the end of it,
a little bit of a breeze between 5 to 15 mph.
You can see.
Big picture still seeing the
active weather here across parts
of the Pacific Northwest,
generally east of the Cascades.
I don't think any of that activity will
make its way here into the lowlands here
across parts of Western Washington,
but you can see some heavier showers
across the eastern slopes especially.
The north and eastern slopes of the
Cascades up to Washington will probably
produce some heavier downpours at times,
small flooding risk to
go along with that too.
But it does die off later into the night.
Here we are at 7:00 o'clock tomorrow
morning back in the marine layer,
cloudy and gloomy,
to start off your Wednesday.
Then we get into the afternoon and you
can see starting to see some clearing skies.
And then we head into Thursday
and more the same deal again as
we start off with the clouds.
We'll get into the afternoon,
start to see some clearing,
and then a weak feature moves
on by and that will keep that
onshore flow kind of going for us,
which will keep temperature.
Really getting out of hand as
we head closer to the weekend.
As far as temperatures though,
you can see they do start to
climb a little bit on Thursday
out ahead of that system up to 78,
will cool down a little bit
behind that weak system and then
back up near the upper 70s,
possibly lower 80s on Sunday.
I think we get some 80s as we
start off next work week including
that 4th of July forecast which
is looking to be fairly warm.
Today's forecast low 70s in Bellingham,
mid 70s for Arlington Island
Communities will be more into the 60s.
We'll see highs in the mid to upper
70s for Bellevue and Seattle,
76 in Kingston, 74 in Everett,
highs farther to the South,
I think low to mid 70s now into these parts,
72 in Gig Harbor,
74 and Yelp.
Then your forecast tonight we're expecting
to drop down into the mid to lower 50s.
We'll get into the upper 70s next
couple of days and then we'll see
those temperatures start to crank
up a bit more by next Monday.
Plenty of sunshine around and
again I did mention for Tuesday,
next Tuesday, 4th of July.
Is looking like it could be a fairly hot
1. So keep that in mind if you
have any plans here so far.
Of course we got a few days out and
that could change just a little bit.
But gonna be saying draw
here in Western Washington.
Just keep an eye out If you're
heading on into the mountains
take care. Have a terrific Tuesday.
We'll talk to you soon.
