What a difference a day or two can make. A split system over the Pacific Northwest is bringing in plenty of marine layer cloud cover and the type of light showers and drizzle the coast saw much of the weekend.

With the approach of the frontal system the metro area will also experience cooler high temperatures with Tuesday's high forecast for 65 degrees. There's some chance of thunderstorms as well, but mostly near the Cascades and the foothills.

Wednesday should be clearer with fewer clouds, some sun breaks and a high temp of 73. The next shortwave bringing clouds and shower chances arrives Wednesday evening. Expect another round of rain from later Wednesday night into Thursday morning

Thursday offers up a 50 percent chance of showers and plenty of clouds. High of 71.
