| Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Seattle WA 254am PDT Tuesday May 19 2026 Synopsis The weather pattern remains fairly steady with high pressure situated offshore through the week with morning clouds and afternoon sun. Temperatures will rise a bit each day through the end of the week before beginning to cool off this weekend into early next week. Short Term - Today through Thursday Upper-level pattern remaining mostly unchanged with troughing over the Great Basin and Intermountain West - a ridge remains just offshore the PNW. High clouds are currently streaming in under northwest flow aloft. Another round of patchy fog/low stratus is developing this morning but coverage won't be widespread. Low stratus/fog will give way to mid to high clouds and filtered sunshine this afternoon. A shortwave rounding the periphery of the ridge will increase slight (15-20%) PoPs, mainly across the mountains. High temperatures are forecast in the 60s across the interior with 50s along the coast. Overnight lows will fall into the 40s. Upper-ridging is likely to maintain through Thursday as conditions remain rather benign. Temperatures are to remain near-seasonal on Wednesday but warm readily into the 70s to near 80 F across the interior on Thursday. Coastal areas will see afternoon highs in the 60s with lows in the 40s area-wide. Long Term - Thursday Night Through Monday Warmer conditions will continue into Friday before more robust onshore flow move in towards the weekend. Temperatures will top out Friday into the low to mid 70s. The ridge will flatten as the pattern turns more zonal over the weekend. This should help to not just start to cool temperatures, but also bring increased chance for widespread Probability of Precipitation into early next week. 41 Marine Onshore flow will prevail this week with high pressure offshore and lower pressure inland.
