How is the weather gonna be in seattle wa. in late august?

Question

im going to seattle in late august/early September i was just wondering what type of clothes i should pack and everything-how is the weather this time of year? i havent been to washington in a very long time

Answer 1

That's actually the nicest time of year, in my opinion...it should be gorgeous.  What to bring:

Shorts or skirts

1 pair of pants

short-sleeve shirts

1 sweater

walking shoes

sandals

swimsuit

rain coat

...I say that last one because you just never know in Seattle.  Pack a lightweight "shell" of a raincoat...nothing warm, you just want the waterproof layer, "just in case"!!

Answer 2

I would bring LAYERS!!  It's rare that it gets extremely hot here, but every once in awhile, a 85 degree day leaves us sweating, so it's good to be prepared just in case.  Otherwise, I'd suggest bringing a sweater or light jacket for the evenings, because it can cool down pretty significantly in the evenings, especially if you are near the water.

Otherwise, you're typical summer wear is probably fine:  Capris, shorts, short sleeved tops, etc.

Answer 3

It is usually nice at that time.  But it can be relatively cold.  I would suggest you bring the usual summer wear of sandals, shorts, and t shirts.  Also, be ready for cooler temperatures with a light jacket, sweatshirt, and long pants.  Also bring everything in between.

Answer 4

beautiful! bring a sweater for the evenings

Answer 5

the weather is awesome!!! it's normally nice and warm/hot. but you should pack for all kinds of weather. you should pack shorts and pants, tanks and t-shirts, flip-flops and tennis shoes, a rain coat and a couple light weight sweaters/jackets.
