Discussion:
After a beautiful sunny summer-like weekend, clouds began to roll in later Sunday as a weak weather system approached the Pacific Northwest. The system will move through Monday for mostly cloudy skies with a few sunbreaks and much cooler high temperatures. There will be a slight chance of a sprinkle during the day, but it will probably be dry most places.
The Geomagnetic storminess is pretty much over. NOAA predicts only a tiny chance of seeing any aurora in western Washington tonight and that would be near the Canadian border and low on the horizon. Geomagnetic activity is expected to continue to decrease on Tuesday.
As we head into Tuesday and mid-week, high pressure will again build off the coast and shift towards western Washington. However, it will be weaker than this past weekend with highs climbing back into the upper 60s to mid 70's for mid week.
As we head towards the weekend, we may be brushed by a couple weak weather systems for more clouds mixed with sunshine and a slight chance of showers Friday and Sunday. Highs will cool a little over the weekend with highs mainly in the mid to upper 60s, which is still a few degrees above normal.
