Today, the National Weather service predicts a high of 68 degrees. Next Wednesday, the National Weather Service predicts a high of 68 degrees. But in between…Saturday: 74. (“They are a conservative lot down there,” says Cliff Mass.) Sunday and Monday should reach the upper 70s, maybe even 80. Cue the unofficial 4-day weekend, as work in Seattle will slow significantly by noon on Friday, and not pick up much at all on Monday, due to lengthy conversations about the “heat wave.”
Service journalism: “Best Rooftop Bars and Restaurants in Seattle.” Also, if you’re near SoDo on Sunday, or south of town, be warned that Cascade Bicycle Club’s “Brews Cruise” has sold out, so there will be a large number of microbrew-loving cyclists on the Interurban and Green River bike trails.
Apparently the 8-to-14-day forecast keeps the heat on. “Believe it or not,” promises Mass, “you will become sick of heat and sun!” [No, Mr. Mass, I can promise you that an unlimited of nearly-80-degree days will not accomplish that — ed.]
