The National Weather Service says Washington is in for a week of warm, summer-like weather.
“A ridge of high pressure will take up residence along the west coast this week for a stretch of mostly sunny and dry weather that should last into next week,” says KING 5 meteorologist Rich Marriott.
Marriott says temperatures Monday should be increasing to the upper 60s or low to mid 70s, and that warm weather will continue.
“Sunshine 70 degrees to near 80 degrees tomorrow and basically staying in a sunny pattern with highs in the 70s all the way through the weekend, a lot of soaking up to be done this week,” says Marriott.
High temperatures are forecast in the 70s in Western Washington and 80s in Eastern Washington.
Marriott says the warm weather could continue into the middle of next week.
