After a few continuous days of sunshine, and even some nice, light drizzle, our weather is taking a turn for the dreaded "Juneuary," where it can feel a lot more like January than we tend to prefer our Junes.

According to the National Weather Service, Thursday will be another day of mostly sunny skies, with temperatures in the 60s and 70s. The lows will be a bit cooler than the past couple days, but nothing too drastic.

And then comes the weekend: According to NWS Seattle, our bounty of good weather will give way to a couple of cool and wet days. But don't worry, once you're back in work on Monday, things should clear up a bit.
