SPOKANE, Wash. — Busy morning with some areas of patchy fog and below freezing temperatures. Northeastern Washington saw temperatures drop to 28-32 degrees with Frost Advisories having been issued until 8am.
But now that the frost and fog is finished, our attention can return to rain chances this week, of which there will be many. Today, it's scattered afternoon showers. Just like yesterday they'll pop up by 1pm and may mature into a chance for thunderstorms around 5-6pm.
A widespread and colder rain is heading this way for Tuesday evening. So models have rain beginning as early as 1pm Tuesday, but it's for certain that the Inland Northwest will get widespread, steady rain Tuesday evening and most of the day Wednesday. This will make Wednesday feel a lot like it did on Bloomsday, if you remember that cold and rainy Sunday... this looks very similar, if only a pinch more mild with temps near 50 instead of the mid 40s.
Rain chances continue every day through Saturday. So that's 6 days in a row (at least) of rain chances for the Inland Northwest as temperatures stay below normal.
