After a brief snowfall in Seattle on Thursday morning, the city's weather is changing dramatically. Instead of wintry chill, residents can expect warmer temperatures and rain this coming weekend. Isolated showers are possible Friday morning, but then it will turn drier and temperatures will rise to about +4...+7°C. On Saturday and Sunday precipitation will become more widespread, and thermometers will reach a comfortable +10...+12°C.
About 6 mm of rain is expected in the lowlands over the weekend. At the same time, in the mountains—good news for winter sports enthusiasts—snow is expected: 5 to 15 cm at higher elevations and 2 to 10 cm in the passes, which is welcome after an unusually low-snow winter. Forecasters say the region will see several rounds of precipitation next week, accompanied by gusty winds.
