This week marks the official start of summer, but the weather report may not be lining up as we’d hoped.
The National Weather Service forecasts a cooling trend across Washington with an increasing chance of showers.
Early Monday, there might be some sun, but KING 5’s Rich Marriott says it will be short lived. “We’ll see an increasing chance of showers this afternoon.”
Marriott says there may even be some thunderstorms in the Cascade foothills Monday.
Forecasters say Wednesday will likely be the wettest day of the week, with summer officially arriving Thursday night.
Rain is also in the forecast Thursday with highs expected to be in the low to mid 60s.
Drier, warmer weather is expected by the weekend, with partly sunny skies in the forecast.
