The weather will be fairly quiet for Christmas Eve, but active weather returns just in time for Christmas. For today, there will be partly sunny skies, occasional showers and a stray, weak thunderstorm. It’ll be slightly breezy. Temperatures in Seattle will range in the upper 40s to low 50s on Tuesday afternoon.

The weather outside on Christmas will, in fact, be frightful as storms roll into the region. Back-to-back storms beginning Tuesday night will bring rain and wind on Christmas on Wednesday, and more will occur into the end of the week for post-Christmas travel as well.

Strongest wind expected for the coast and north, while Cascade passes could see one to two feet of snow through Thursday.
