The Puget Sound region has enjoyed a spurt of sunshine, but unfortunately, the warm rays won’t last much longer.

Cliff Mass, an Atmospheric Sciences Professor with the University of Washington, told “The Jason Rantz Show” on KTTH Thursday that wet weather will dampen the weekend.

“This is one of the clearest days that we’ve had, in my memory, I mean, it’s like no clouds in the sky. It’s perfectly blue. So today is the extreme in terms of no weather, but unfortunately, we do have some weak systems coming in over the weekend, so we’re going to cool down, and we will have some showers over the weekend. So I hate to say that today is good, tomorrow will be fine too, but it’ll get back to normal as we get into the weekend. So it’s not gonna last,” Mass explained.

He added that this stretch of sun is not unusual for April.

“I looked at the numbers and we’ve had these kind of dry periods in April. It happens quite frequently,” he shared.
