Fairly dry Mother's Day is followed by a soggy start to next week
Saturday evening sees tranquil weather with a partly sunny sunset. Clouds will gradually build in some more, becoming mostly cloudy overnight. No rain is expected as an area of high pressure remains in control. The night also won't be as cold, mitigating anymore frost concerns, as overnight lows drop into the low 50s and upper 40s.
Sunday won't be that bad for Mother's Day! Morning planners and church goers will see partly cloudy to mostly cloudy skies with an area of low pressure down to our south. As our low pressure system gets closer, can't rule out an isolated sprinkle down to the south with anyone up to the north staying dry in the afternoon. Expect a warm day in the 70s!
Sunday evening keeps the clouds going so won't be the perfect sunset for Mother's Day! Evening plans for the most part, however, will be on good shape with just an isolated sprinkle chance down to the south. As our low pressure system starts to move up to the north overnight, expect the chance for showers to increase. Clouds skies and any rain chances will keep overnight lows warm in the upper 50s.
Monday sees our area of low pressure move into the southern US. This will be close enough to start to bring in scattered showers in the morning with more widespread showers in the afternoon. A gloomy and soggy day to start the week so don't forget those umbrellas. Expect a few afternoon rumbles of thunder with daytime highs in the 60s.
Tuesday again sees our area of low pressure around the region. This will provide a rinse and repeat day with scattered showers in the morning and widespread showers expected during the afternoon. Monday through Tuesday, our rainfall totals look to approach close to an inch, especially along our eastern mountains. No widespread flooding is expected, but some localized issues can't be ruled out. Daytime highs on Tuesday are expected to climb near 70.

Wednesday once again sees our nearby low pressure system in control of the forecast. Like Monday and Tuesday, this will provide more chances for scattered showers and afternoon storms. Just don't forget those umbrellas just to play it safe with daytime highs trying to climb into the low 70s.
Thursday definitely looks like the driest of the days so far. The morning won't see much activity with just an isolated sprinkle at best. As we turn to the afternoon, combined with the humidity and daytime highs near 80, expect some hit or miss storms with two nearby systems.

In your extended forecast, more chances for hit or miss storms continue on Friday as we see a low pressure system out west get closer. This will culminate with a cold front arriving the following weekend, keeping the rain and storms chances going. Next Sunday and Monday look to bring some more breaks with daytime highs in the 70s and 80s.

Cooling off in the water this weekend? Here's what you need to know
As the warmer weather starts to roll in, thousands of people will be heading to the water to cool off, but officials are warning people to stay safe when entering Washington's lakes and rivers. Pinpoint Alert Days issued for warm temperatures and cold water danger Sunday and Monday 'What surprises people is the rivers. If they get in there, it's gonna be bone-chilling, cold,' said Peter Mongillo with Snohomish Regional Fire. Mongillo wants to remind people that rivers and lakes can be frigid, despite the heat outside. 'You can get your energy sapped very quickly... If you fill up with, you know, water in your lungs, you're gonna sink like a rock,' he explained. According to the National Weather Service, cold shock can happen in 50-to-60-degree water. Here are the current water temperatures in Western Washington: Lake Washington: 66° Lake Sammamish: 70° Green Lake: 65° Puget Sound (Seattle Aquarium): 56° Lake Stevens: 62° Lake Ballinger: 64° Lake Tapps: 51° Tolt River: 52° Snoqualmie River: 52° Due to these cold temperatures, Mongillo urges everyone to wear life vests — even if they know how to swim. 'Especially in the rivers, your hands become less functional. You can't grab onto things as easily, you can't swing your arms as easily, but you know what, if you got that life jacket on you're at least you're afloat,' he added. Fire officials can't emphasize enough that parents keep an eye on their kids in the water and don't get distracted looking down at their phones. Mongillo says that when the weather starts to warm up, they see an increase in water rescue calls. 'Sadly, the first warm weekend of the year, especially here in the Pacific Northwest, we can set our clocks to it because that's when drownings really start picking up in the lakes and the rivers,' he said.

Lake Tahoe water temperature remains cold, posing risks for swimmers
( — With the weather getting warmer, the water temperatures of Lake Tahoe are still on the cooler side, according to the North Lake Tahoe Fire Protection District. NLTFPD stated that before you swim, check the temperature of the water and know your limitations. Lake Tahoe remains the second deepest lake in the United States; because of this, the temperature remains lower year-round. At this time, NLTFPD said that the lake temperature is currently in the high 50s, which is considered to be cold water and can quickly lead to cold water shock, swim failure, and hypothermia. 'Cold water shock is a real risk. An average of seven people drown in Lake Tahoe every year due to cold water shock,' said NLTFPD officials. 'Cold water shock occurs when the body enters extremely cold water and the muscles lock up, resulting in temporary paralysis.'

During the summer and throughout the year, NLTFPD responds to numerous water emergencies on the lake, according to officials. Here are some safety precautions before heading to the cold waters at Lake Tahoe. Boat Safety: Each person on board a boat, including paddleboards, must have at least one USCG-approved life Jacket Children under 13 must wear a USCG-approved life jacket while the boat is underway, unless they are in an enclosed area Carry a whistle or horn Dress for the water temperature, not the air temperature Check the weather forecast for wind conditions Never go on the water alone Don't drink alcohol while recreating on the lake File a float plan – leave it with a friend or family member Swim Safety Wear a USCG-approved life jacket Know your swimming limitations Enter the water slowly Feet first, first time Swim with a buddy Respect the dangers of cold water Check the weather for wind conditions Stay hydrated Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
