Seattleites, grab your coffee and maybe your backup umbrella — this week’s forecast is giving us the full PNW playlist: a little sun, a good amount of gloom, some romantic drizzle, and a brief moment of hope midweek. Classic.
It’s the kind of week that makes you appreciate every sunny minute… and perfects your art of cozying up when the rain rolls in.
Let’s break it down — Seattle style.
SATURDAY — “Hey Look, the Sun Remembered Us!”
High: 68°F | Low: 49°F
Saturday’s that rare spring gem: mostly sunny with just enough chill to remind you it’s still April. It’s the perfect day to hit the farmer’s market, sip a lavender latte outside, or walk along the waterfront without having to duck into shelter every ten minutes.
Vibe: Light jacket. Big smiles. This is the one you tell your out-of-town friends about.
SUNDAY — “Don’t Get Too Comfortable…”
High: 57°F | Low: 50°F
And just like that — the clouds are back. Rain’s rolling in by late morning and planning to stick around. Temps drop, the sunshine bails, and we’re back to wearing beanies like it’s November.
What to do:
Make it a museum day. Catch a matinee. Light a candle and embrace your inner rainy-day poet. It’s what we do best.
MONDAY — “Somewhere Between Mist and Moodiness”
High: 55°F | Low: 45°F
It’s breezy, it’s gray, and it might drizzle just enough to annoy you. Showers will wander in and out all day. Monday has main-character energy — but like, the kind in a slow indie drama.
Pro tip:
Don’t trust the sun if it shows up — it’s probably just passing through.
TUESDAY — “The Sky’s Just Not Feeling It Today”
High: 54°F | Low: 47°F
Rain on and off, heavy on the meh. The clouds are back in charge and they’ve muted the whole city’s color palette. It’s a soup-for-lunch, flannel-shirt, rewatch-old-movies kind of day.
Mood: Melancholy in the most Seattle way possible.
WEDNESDAY — “A Midweek Mood Lift!”
High: 62°F | Low: 49°F
Surprise! The sun remembers us again. Not a heatwave by any stretch, but it’s bright enough to remind you what shadows look like. If you’ve got errands, a patio lunch, or a dog with cabin fever — this is your day.
Plan for it:
Even if you have to wear layers, let yourself feel hopeful.
THURSDAY — “Rain Is Back in the Group Chat”
High: 59°F | Low: 46°F
Back to drizzle, mist, and cloudy skies. It’s soft, persistent rain — not dramatic, just Seattle’s version of small talk. You’ll feel it in your hair, but not in your soul (unless you forgot your jacket).
Best move:
Make plans that don’t mind a little gray. Head to your favorite coffee shop and write something sad and beautiful.
Seattle Summary:
Let’s be real — this week is peak Seattle. Moody, cozy, and unpredictable in that oddly comforting way. We get a sunny Saturday to keep the seasonal depression at bay, and a bright Wednesday to remind us it’s still spring — even if the rain doesn’t want to admit it.
You know the drill: layers, caffeine, and romanticizing the weather like it’s your full-time job.
