Seattle winter weather: Cold and icy Friday morning ahead

Thursday turned out to be a pretty nice day, but it was still cold. Seattle got to 39 degrees, which is 11 degrees below the average temp. Friday morning's commute could be a little sketchy with ice, and the possibility of left over slush in places.

Local perspective:

Temperatures early Friday will be well below freezing, into the mid 20s. But during the day it will get to the low 40s out on the coast and upper 30s elsewhere.

What's next:

The chance for more lowland snow will pick up again from Friday night into Saturday morning as a low pressure system moves inland south of the area. Amounts will be lighter than Thursday morning’s event, but stay tuned to the forecast as we get closer.

This weekend will bring a slight chance for showers at times, but it looks more dry than wet. We will remain very cool through the middle of next week with highs in the 30s and lows in the 20s.
