For a July 1:10 PM day game at Everett Memorial Stadium, the sun sits 63° up in the south at first pitch, so shade means getting under the grandstand roof or the deck above you. Sunset is 9:03 PM local, so an evening game gets real shade as the sun drops. By 7:05 PM the sun is only 17° up in the west, 119 minutes from setting.

The Pacific Northwest hands Everett a gentler summer than almost anywhere else in affiliated baseball, and it changes the whole calculus of where to sit. At Everett Memorial Stadium, the 3,682-seat home of the High-A AquaSox, a Seattle Mariners affiliate, the question is less "how do I survive the heat" and more "do I want the sun on me or not."
Everett is far enough north that even at 1:10 PM in high summer the sun tops out at 63 degrees, the lowest midday sun of any park in this part of our guide. Lower sun means longer shadows, so a grandstand overhang or roofline here shelters more rows than the same structure would in Texas. It also means a day game is genuinely pleasant more often than not: mild air, no punishing heat, and sun that feels like a feature rather than a threat. We won't manufacture a heat warning where the climate doesn't justify one.
The evenings run long. Sunset in high summer is 9:03 PM, among the latest in the minors, and at 7 PM the sun is still 17 degrees up in the west-northwest. A typical 7:05 first pitch happens in full daylight, and you can expect low-angle sun through the early innings before it settles behind whatever stands to the west. The practical note: at 17 degrees, sun in your face is eye-level glare, so a cap or sunglasses earns its keep even when the temperature doesn't.
We haven't confirmed which way Everett Memorial Stadium faces, so we can't tell you which sections shade first, and with a park this small, a single unlucky row choice is easy to fix by moving anyway. Small High-A parks are single-deck by design, with covered rows varying park to park; if there's a roofed section of the grandstand, its back rows are the reliable shade for an afternoon game. Day games, as everywhere in this league, mostly mean Sundays and getaway days.
The satellite shadow view at the top of this page shows the real shadows on the real stadium for any date and time. Pull it up for your game's first pitch, watch which side of Everett Memorial Stadium darkens first, and choose accordingly, sun-seekers on one side, shade-keepers on the other. In Everett, unusually, both answers are defensible.
