Monday is the last day to catch a Seattle sunset past 8 p.m. this year.

SEATTLE — Editor's note: the video above is from a story about the ways to watch the sunset in Seattle.

Shorter days and earlier sunsets are in Seattle’s horizon.

For the past three years, August 26 has been the last day the sun illuminates the sky after 8 p.m. Soon, it'll be time to dust off your raincoats and boots as we enter our rainy months.

Summer 2019 has been an interesting one for Seattleites with July being even gloomier than some winter months, quite the contrast from the scorching summers we've had for six years.

The weather has been pretty tame this year. There have been no days yet in August where the temperature hits the 90s. We had just one 90 degree day in both June and July, a big difference from the 11 we had last year.

Despite this fact, Seattle has been blessed this summer with fun events like SLU’s weekly Saturday markets, the Washington State International Kite Festival, the upcoming Bumbershoot Festival, and more.
