The heat was fun, but clouds are returning for a few days

Cooler temps and damp mornings are in the forecast for the rest of the week. Then summer returns.

After a bit of a heatwave, cooler weather and some showers are in the forecast for the rest of the week in the Puget Sound lowlands, says the National Weather Service in Seattle.

Temperatures will be in the lower 70s during daytime hours, and some rain or drizzle is forecast for Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Lows will be in the upper 50s.

The sun is likely to peak out at times in the afternoons, the Weather Service said.
