Wildfires and Cooling Skies Ahead | Seattle News
Description
Washington’s wildfire season is breaking records, with over 400,000 acres scorched—mostly from a massive July lightning strike—thanks to relentless dryness in Western Washington despite typical summer temps. A weather shift hints at fall’s arrival: daylight’s decline will naturally cool things, with Seattle highs dipping near 70°F by the end of the week and staying mild through early next week. Light showers may roll in late this week, especially Saturday, but won’t quell the fires. September could bring cooler, wetter conditions for the Northwest, though steady rain’s likely to wait until later in the month. One last hot day (mid-80s to low 90s) on Tuesday gives way to milder 70s Wednesday—summer’s peak heat is fading fast.
