The National Weather Service in Seattle has issued an Excessive Heat Watch in effect for Sunday morning through Sunday evening, August 17.

From the National Weather Service:
  • What: Very hot conditions with afternoon temperatures in the 90's.
  • Where: Portions of northwest and west central Washington. (This includes Shoreline and Lake Forest Park.)
  • When: From Sunday morning through Sunday evening.
  • Impacts: Very hot conditions will significantly increase the potential for heat related illnesses, particularly for those who are sensitive to heat.
  • Additional Details: Hottest temperatures are expected in locations away from the water including Cascade valleys.  
Forecast: Sunny skies and clear nights are expected Friday through next Tuesday.

High temperatures expected:
  • Friday: Mid 70's
  • Saturday: Upper 70's to lower 80's.
  • Sunday: Upper 80's to mid 90's. North winds could gust up to 30mph, this could increase urban brushfire or wildfire risks.
  • Monday: Lower to Mid 80's.
  • Tuesday: Lower to Mid 80's.

Our low temperature Sunday night may stay as warm as the mid 60's, so it may be a very uncomfortable night going into Monday morning.

Next week Tuesday night through Thursday looks to have partly cloudy skies return with a chance of showers intermittently. High temperatures cool back down to the mid 70's to near 80°F, with lows near 60°F.
