Happy Friday! Warmer temps for today before a cool down & showers this weekend. – Emily

SPOKANE, Wa. — Happy Friday! We’re warming into the mid-70s today with partly sunny skies.

These warmer temps are bringing us closer to the seasonal average, and where we should be for this time of year. It’s going to be short-lived though!

We’ll have increasing clouds this afternoon before showers and potentially thunderstorms move in tonight. Along with that, comes cooler temperatures for the weekend.

We’ll have a high of only 63 by Saturday and Sunday looks to be similar with the rain chances lingering through Father’s Day weekend.

The active weather moves out by Monday night and the sunshine returns as we warm back into the mid-70s by the middle of next week.
