Washington – Bright sunshine and crisp air fill Spokane now, but clouds are already building, setting up a noticeable shift toward wetter spring weather.
Temperatures climb into the low 70s by Friday, offering one of the warmest stretches so far this season. Streets stay dry for now, and visibility remains clear across downtown and along I-90.
According to the National Weather Service, rain chances begin increasing late Friday, with a slight 20% chance developing into the evening hours. Conditions may still feel mild, but the pattern is already changing.
By Saturday, showers become more widespread with a 60% chance of rain across Spokane, Spokane Valley, and surrounding communities. Expect wet pavement, especially during midday and afternoon travel windows. Plan extra time if heading out.
Saturday night keeps rain in the picture, and by Sunday, another round of showers develops with a 50% chance. Highs ease back into the low 60s, replacing the earlier warmth with a cooler, damp feel.
Drivers should watch for slick spots and reduced visibility during heavier showers. Even light rain can create glare and slower traffic conditions. Keep headlights on and maintain safe distances.
Looking ahead, early next week remains unsettled with lingering rain chances before gradual clearing begins. Temperatures dip into the mid-50s before a potential warm-up later next week.
