Spokane, WA – Eastern Washington is set to sizzle through the weekend, with temperatures climbing into the upper 90s and little relief at night. By Sunday and Monday, Spokane and surrounding communities may see highs near 97 degrees.
According to the National Weather Service, the warming trend begins Friday when highs push into the low 90s under clear skies. Saturday will mark the start of a prolonged heat stretch, with afternoon highs reaching 96 degrees and only dropping to the low 60s overnight. Sunday and Monday bring the hottest conditions, topping out at 97 degrees with partly cloudy skies.
The heat will impact Spokane, Spokane Valley, and nearby areas such as Liberty Lake and Cheney, where residents should limit outdoor activity during the afternoon hours. Health officials recommend staying hydrated, seeking air-conditioned spaces, and checking on vulnerable neighbors. With overnight lows staying in the 60s, the lack of cooling could increase heat stress, particularly for those without access to AC.
Temperatures are expected to remain well above seasonal averages until at least Wednesday, when conditions may moderate slightly.
