Seattle weather today is sunny and 65°F—one of those rare, gorgeous spring days that reminds us why we stick around through the drizzle. Temperatures will climb steadily through the morning, reaching that pleasant mid-60s by afternoon with just a light northwest breeze of 2 to 6 mph. Dew points are bone-dry (in the 20s), so if you’ve been battling spring allergies, today should bring some relief—though keeping an allergy relief nasal spray handy never hurts during pollen season.
This is an ideal day to get outside. Head to Discovery Park, Green Lake, or any of the trails around the Cascades foothills. The Seattle Reign FC vs. Utah Royals FC match kicks off at Lumen Field this afternoon, and gameday conditions couldn’t be better—no rain, light winds, and comfortable temperatures for tailgating. Grab Get tickets on SeatGeek if you haven’t already, and consider picking up Official team gear on Fanatics to show your support. If you’re bringing a portable propane grill for pre-game festivities, you’ll have perfect weather for it.
For evening entertainment, The Sleeping Beauty by International Ballet Stars is performing at the Paramount Theatre tonight—an indoor event, so the clear skies won’t matter, but the mild evening (dropping to around 47°F by 9 PM) means a comfortable walk to the theater. If live music is more your speed, Helloween: 40th Anniversary North American Tour 2026 takes the Paramount stage tomorrow night (April 28th), and Queens of the Stone Age: The Catacombs Tour hits the venue Wednesday (April 29th)—grab Queens of the Stone Age t-shirt merch to commemorate the show.
Monday brings a slight cool-down to 60°F with partly sunny skies and a weak disturbance moving in. The National Weather Service notes that an upper-level ridge is keeping us dry, but cloud cover increases Monday evening. No rain is expected through midweek, though temperatures will dip slightly. By Wednesday, stronger ridging rebuilds and a few spots south of Seattle could flirt with 70°F.
Tonight, if you’re planning a backyard dinner, grilled pasta or stir-fry pairs perfectly with this crisp spring evening. The cool overnight temps (low 47°F) make it ideal for cooking outdoors without overheating the kitchen. You can order groceries on Amazon to grab fresh pasta, seasonal vegetables, and herbs delivered to your door—everything you need for a simple, elegant meal under the stars.
Bottom line: Seize this sunny Sunday. It’s the kind of day that makes Seattle feel like the best-kept secret in the Pacific Northwest.
