Heatwave Hits, But Relief Is On the Way | Seattle News

Scorching heat is here to stay — temps hitting the mid-90s across the region with a Heat Advisory in effect until 11 p.m. tonight. Hazy skies from wildfire smoke add to the fire danger, especially as the hottest part of the day peaks between 3 and 6 p.m. Coastal towns like Ocean Park and Westport stay cool in the 60s thanks to ocean breezes, while east of the Cascades sees even hotter temps — up to 105 in Omak. Relief is on the way: cooler onshore winds kick in Wednesday evening, bringing muggy conditions that clear by Thursday with a possible stray shower. After that, temps settle into comfortable 70s through the weekend, perfect for Seafair festivities. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
