We topped out at 82 degrees today—but warmer days are ahead. We’ll max out around 87 tomorrow, and then in the low 90s for #WorldCup day on Monday. ⚽️🥵

After a remarkably pleasant stretch of weather, the heat cranks up this weekend! Highs will hover around 90 Sunday & Monday. This isn’t anything we haven’t seen before, but 90 without A/C isn’t pleasant. Stay cool!

Very detailed read about how the Super El Niño could impact our weather as soon as this summer

Weather today was ideal! More of this please 🙏

Rainbow alert!

Official today: Capital Weather is independent once again. Twenty-two years after launching Capital Weather as an independent weather website for the DC area — and 18 years after first partnering with The Washington Post and becoming the Capital Weather Gang — we are independent again.

Your support will make this possible. Here is what we’ve built and how you can support us.

Warmest day of the year (so far)! Seattle topped out at 86° today, overtaking May 12 and 28 (82°) for the city’s warmest temp of 2026 ☀️

Welcome to the first 9 pm sunset of the year! From now through July 18, the sun won’t dip below the horizon until the 9 o’clock hour. ☀️

Sunshine bursts through this afternoon! Highs will stay on the cool side, though—in the mid-60s.

Some sun to wash away the remnants of a drizzly day! More clouds tomorrow, but no rain. ☀️appears later in the afternoon.

Calling all Steve Pool fans! Does anyone own this “I make it rain” t shirt featuring our local legend? I’m doing a Steve story, and I’d love pictures of viewers wearing it. If you have an old pic of yourself in it, or still have the T & can take one, please drop it here! 🙏

We are getting a great show!

Will be living vicariously through Spokane in the next hour as a severe thunderstorm bears down on the city! Oh, to be nursing one of @NoLiBrewhouse’s best as the thunder & lightning roar through. In a Bloomsday shirt to boot! 🍺🏃
