We have some air quality mainly in the moderate range around Western Washington today though it’s a bit worse nearer the Cascades and far north away from the water.
Onshore flow picks back up tonight through Wednesday and that’ll freshen up the skies of Western Washington and cool temperatures by Wednesday afternoon back to the 70s.
Some weak disturbances will roll through the region with onshore wind flow off the Pacific bringing more clouds into the area starting Thursday through early next week. A few sprinkles could be had in the lowlands on Thursday with a chance of a few mainly isolated mountain storms in the afternoon. The same is possible Friday though we’ll keep any mention of sprinkles out of the forecast for the lowlands.
A slightly stronger wave might roll through by Saturday with possibly more rain showers around the area, but amounts look light and coverage possibly spotty at best.
Highs in the mid 70s in Seattle Wednesday and Thursday will fall to around 70 Friday into early next week.
I don’t see a return to very warm temperatures anytime soon after tomorrow, and we’re quickly losing daylight and the likelihood of heat waves continues to fall quickly as we head into September.
