AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SEATTLE WA
957 AM PDT SUN APR 1 2012

.SYNOPSIS...A WEAK DISTURBANCE WILL KEEP SHOWERS GOING ACROSS THE
AREA TODAY. EXPECT A WEAK WARM FRONT TO CLIP THE FAR WEST TONIGHT.
A COLD FRONT WILL BECOME NEARLY STATIONARY OFFSHORE THROUGH MONDAY
NIGHT. THIS WILL RESULT IN LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN ON THE COAST AND
OLYMPICS. THE FRONT WILL SLOWLY MOVE ACROSS THE AREA ON TUESDAY FOR
WET AND WINDY CONDITIONS.

&&

.SHORT TERM...
IT LOOKS LIKE THERE WILL BE SHOWERS AND SUN BREAKS DURING THE DAY
TODAY. THE GUSTY WINDS HAVE DROPPED OFF AT A NUMBER OF LOCATIONS BUT
EXPECT LOCALLY BREEZY CONDITIONS TO PERSIST DUE TO A MODEST /BUT
RELAXING/ ONSHORE PRES GRADIENT. EXPECT A WEAK SHORT WAVE TROF TO
MOVE ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

THE NEXT PAC STORM WAS CURRENTLY NEAR 150W. THE NAM AND GFS MODELS
CONTINUED TO SLOW DOWN THIS SYSTEM. IN OTHER WORDS...THESE MODELS
WERE BECOMING MORE IN LINE WITH WHAT THE ECMWF HAS BEEN ADVERTISING.
HOWEVER THE NAM AND GFS WERE STILL FASTER THAN THE ECMWF. THE WAY
THINGS ARE HEADING...IT LOOKS LIKE MUCH OF THE CWA MAY END UP DRY ON
MON. BUILDING HEIGHTS AHEAD OF THE UPCOMING LOW PRES SYSTEM ALONG
WITH INCREASED LOW LEVEL ELY FLOW WILL LEAD TO WARMER WEATHER ON
MON.

DUE TO THE SLOWER TIMING OF THE FRONT...HEAVY RAINS ON THE N COAST
AND SW FACING SLOPES OF THE OLYMPICS WILL PROBABLY HOLD OFF UNTIL
MON NIGHT. EXPECT THE FRONT TO MOVE ACROSS THE CWA DURING THE DAY
TUE FOR WET AND WINDY WEATHER.

.LONG TERM FROM THE PREV DISCUSSION...
THE MODELS SHOW A BROAD UPPER LEVEL LOW PARKED OVER THE PAC NW
THROUGH FRI MORE A FEW MORE SHOWERS AND BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATES.
NORMAL HIGHS ARE MID 50S FOR EARLY APRIL. A CUT-OFF LOW MAY DEVELOP
OFF THE CA COAST NEXT WEEKEND WITH RIDGING OVER WA. WARMER AND DRIER
WEATHER IS IN THE CARDS IF THIS PATTERN HOLDS. 33

&&

.HYDROLOGY FROM THE PREV DISCUSSION...
A WET FRONTAL SYSTEM IS ON TAP FOR MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY WITH
HEAVY RAIN LIKELY FOR THE OLYMPICS. HOWEVER...RECENT MODEL SOLUTIONS
ARE BACKING OFF ON THE STORM TOTALS WITH 1 TO 2 INCHES NOW FORECAST
OVER THE OLYMPICS. SHARP RISES ARE EXPECTED ON THE SKOKOMISH RIVER
IN MASON COUNTY - POSSIBLE FLOODING IF THE FRONT STALLS AND DROPS
HEAVIER PRECIP. RIVER FLOODING IS NOT A CONCERN FOR THE CASCADES.
THE NORTH CASCADES MAY SEE 1 INCH OF LIQUID BUT THIS WILL MAINLY
FALL AS SNOW. LESSER AMOUNTS ARE FORECAST OVER THE CENTRAL CASCADES.

OTHERWISE...HEAVY PRECIP IS NOT FORECAST THROUGH DAY 7.

&&

.AVIATION...WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT TODAY IS PRODUCING DOWNSLOPE OFF THE
OLYMPICS AND SCATTERED CLOUD COVER AND MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS OVER
THE CENTRAL PUGET SOUND. SHOWERS AND MVFR CIGS CONTINUE TO STREAM IN
FROM THE WEST OVER THE COAST AND OLYMPIC PENINSULA...WITH A DYING
CONVERGENCE ZONE OVER THE NORTHERN PUGET SOUND. GUSTY SOUTHWEST
WINDS WILL EASE EARLY THIS AFTERNOON AS ONSHORE FLOW DIMINISHES.

THE NEXT SHORTWAVE OFF THE SOUTH WASHINGTON COAST WILL MOVE IN THIS
AFTERNOON SPREADING CLOUDS BACK INTO THE INTERIOR AND A RAIN SHIELD
A FAR NORTH AS THE SOUTHERN/CENTRAL SOUND. EVEN WITH THIS NEXT
IMPULSE...CEILINGS SHOULD STAY IN THE 030-050 RANGE.

KSEA...S-SW WINDS 15KT WITH GUSTS NEAR 25 KNOTS THROUGH LATE THIS
MORNING EASING TO 10 TO 15 KNOTS THIS AFTERNOON. VFR THIS MORNING
THANKS TO BLOCKING FROM THE OLYMPICS...BUT LIGHT RAIN WILL RETURN
THIS AFTERNOON WITH AND CIGS BACK TO 030. DAMICO

&&

.MARINE...STRONG ONSHORE FLOW HAS BEGUN TO EASE AS A SURFACE TROUGH
BEGINS TO CUT INTO HIGHER PRES ALONG THE WA COAST...EASING ONSHORE
GRADIENTS. ONSHORE WINDS SHOULD HAVE PEAKED EARLIER THIS MORNING
WITH GALES IN THE EAST/CENTRAL STRAIT AND PUGET SOUND...AND HAVE CUT
BACK GALES/SCAS OVER THE INTERIOR WATERS TO END AT 21Z THIS
AFTERNOON.

A STRONG FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL SLOWLY MOVE TOWARD THE AREA SUNDAY
NIGHT AND MONDAY. A WARM FRONT WILL LIFT OVER THE AREA LATE TONIGHT
WITH INCREASING SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST WINDS OVER THE COASTAL WATERS AND
USUAL INTERIOR ZONES. GALE WARNINGS HAVE BEEN ISSUED FOR THE COASTAL
WATERS...ENTRANCES TO THE STRAIT...NORTHERN INLAND WATERS AND
ADMIRALTY INLET. WINDS WILL EASE MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY AS THE
COLD FRONT SLOWLY MOVES ONSHORE. WINDS EASING FOR THE MIDDLE PART OF
THE WEEK WITH A BENIGN SURFACE PATTERN IN PLACE. DAMICO/FELTON

&&

.SEW WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
WA...NONE.
PZ...GALE WARNINGS ARE IN EFFECT FOR ALL WATERS.

     SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR ROUGH BAR UNTIL 7 AM PDT MONDAY FOR
     THE GRAYS HARBOR BAR.
