After a nice weekend, some more heat is coming to the Pacific Northwest this week, with KIRO 7 meteorologists calling Pinpoint Alert Days on Tuesday and Wednesday as the heat might be a little much to handle for some folks in Western Washington.
The onshore, or westerly wind flow (“nature’s air conditioning”), is shutting down as we head into Monday through midweek. This, combined with building high pressure aloft, will allow for the summer sun to warm the area each day.
On Monday, highs will be in the 70s north and on the coast, with mid to upper 80s from the central and south Puget Sound region into the south interior. Not too hot just yet…
