Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Seattle WA
929 PM PST Fri Jan 6 2017

.SYNOPSIS...Cold dry weather will continue tonight. A weather
system will bring a wintry mix of precipitation later Saturday and
Saturday night. A wetter and warmer front will arrive Sunday.
Additional weather systems will bring rain at times through the
first part of next week, with cooler weather and lower snow
levels possible again later next week.

&&

.SHORT TERM...Dry air and light winds will allow temperatures to
drop into the 20s or even upper teens again tonight. High clouds
at times and weak onshore flow will probably result in low
slightly warmer than last night overall.

A weather system moving up from the south will bring precipitation
to the south part of the area Saturday afternoon and then
elsewhere in the evening. Warmer air aloft will override cold dry
air at the surface. Precipitation will likely start as snow in
most areas, then perhaps change to freezing rain, mainly from
about Seattle south. Overall, precipitation amounts look fairly
light, especially north of Seattle. From about Seattle south, a
winter weather advisory will probably eventually be needed for up
to an inch or two of snow, then for some freezing rain. The hood
canal area will get a bit more QPF and heavy snow - 4 inches or
so is possible.

A warmer and wetter frontal system will move into the area Sunday.
This should scour any lingering cold air although a wintry mix
could linger into the morning hours for some locations. There
will also be some windy conditions near the Cascades foothills.
There will be a bit of a break in the wet weather Sunday night,
then another system will move up from the southwest on Monday for
more rain at times. Schneider

.LONG TERM...Previous discussion...A weak system will bring
showers on Tuesday as it moves through Western Washington.
Offshore flow will increase Tuesday night into Wednesday as
another wet Pac system approaches and moves inland. This system
will mainly clip the southern portion of the CWA but the precip
type will be tricky again with a threat of lowland snow. The exact
details have not been hatched out quite yet. Models are trying to
show a drier period on Thursday. Beyond then, confidence is low as
the models start to diverge. 33

&&

.AVIATION...A large upper low will set up near our latitude
between 135W and 140W over the next 24 hours, leading to moderate
southwest flow aloft. A mid-level disturbance will arrive from the
southwest on Saturday afternoon. This will lead to thickening
clouds around mid-day, then the arrival of light precip during the
late afternoon and early evening. With lingering cold air, precip
will start as snow, or a mix of precip types over the lowlands,
before switching over to all rain over the course of Saturday
night and Sunday morning.

KSEA...Clouds will start to thicken above 070 starting around 16z
Saturday. Precip will spread in from the southwest and reach the
terminal around 4-7 pm. Precip is likely to start as a couple
hours of light snow. Minor accumulations of a couple tenths of one
inch are most likely. Later Saturday evening, an intervening
period of light freezing rain or sleet is possible. Precip
intensity should be very light during the period of possible
freezing precip. Enough warming is expected by 15z Sunday for all
liquid rain. Haner

&&

.MARINE...Southeast gradients tonight will become more easterly on
Saturday morning in response to a 997 mb low drifting southward
between 135W and 140W. A warm front will move north across the
waters late Sunday afternoon or Sunday evening, preceded by strong
easterly flow then followed by moderate southerly flow on Sunday
night and Monday. Surface high pressure will build into southern
B.C. on Tue and Wed, with northerly offshore flow prevailing over
the waters. Haner

&&

.HYDROLOGY...No river flooding is expected for the next 7 days.

Note: Due to the long duration of below freezing temperatures over
the last week or so, a number of stream gage readings are being
affected by ice and the data is suspect. Please be aware of that as
you look at stream gage data across our area. Some examples include
Dungeness River near Sequim, several Nooksack River gages, and South
Fork Stillaguamish. These conditions may persist for a few more days
at least.

&&

.SEW WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

     for Hood Canal Area.
