The National Weather Service in Seattle has issued a Gale
Warning, which is in effect from 6 AM to 4 PM PST Wednesday.

* SEAS...4 to 7 feet, building to 7 to 12 feet early Wednesday.

* WIND...Southerly 20 to 30 knots, rising to gale force early
  Wednesday. 

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Gale Warning means winds of 34 to 47 knots are imminent or
occurring. Operating a vessel in gale conditions requires
experience and properly equipped vessels. It is highly
recommended that mariners without the proper experience seek safe
harbor prior to the onset of gale conditions.

A Small Craft Advisory means that wind speeds of 21 to 33 knots
are expected to produce hazardous wave conditions to small craft.
Inexperienced mariners, especially those operating smaller
vessels should avoid navigating in these conditions.

A Gale Watch is issued when the risk of gale force winds of 34 to
47 knots has significantly increased, but the specific timing
and/or location is still uncertain. It is intended to provide
additional lead time for mariners who may wish to consider
altering their plans.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Seattle WA
251 PM PST Tue Nov 20 2018

.SYNOPSIS...The first in a series of weather systems will move
across the area Wednesday bringing light rain to the area. A
stronger system is expected Thanksgiving Day with widespread
lowland rain and mountain snow likely. Rain and mountain snow will
continue Friday with a brief break Saturday. Unsettled weather
returns Sunday through much of next week.

&&

.SHORT TERM...Remaining fog continues to dissipate early this
afternoon as high cloud shield from incoming system moves
overhead. Temperatures are generally in the 50s with a few 40s
where fog lingered longer this morning. Dry weather will continue
through the evening hours with increasing clouds. Ridging will
move off to the east as the first in a series of shortwaves
approaches the coast tonight. This initial system will be weak
with western Washington left in the middle as main energy splits
and goes north into BC and south into Oregon/California. Rain will
overspread the area early Wednesday and continue throughout the
day with light accumulations. Snow levels will generally be in the
5000 foot range with accumulations limited to the highest terrain.
This will limit travel impacts outside of rain-slick roads.

No noticeable break between systems as next shortwave moves into
the region Wednesday night into Thursday/Thanksgiving Day. Models
continue to be in fairly good agreement with a slightly negative
tilt and stronger dynamics. More widespread heavier rain expected
with snow levels dropping down to 3500-4000 feet during the day
Thursday. Several inches of snow are possible down near pass
levels which may cause some travel headaches. Next shortwave
rotates through Thursday night into Friday with additional
precipitation. As this system moves through will likely see some
breezy southerly winds. Cooler mid-level air will wrap into the
system and further drop snow levels down to around 3000 feet. This
will drop several more inches of snow down to pass levels which
additional minor travel impacts. A snow advisory may be needed.
Those with travel plans Thursday and Friday should keep an eye on
the forecast and check on road conditions before departing. CEO

.LONG TERM...System will depart Friday night with a brief period
of ridging across Western Washington. A few showers may linger in
the mountains Saturday but most areas will see a break in
precipitation. Have cut back precipitation chances in the interior
to match current model trends.

Break is short-lived as next system moves across Saturday night
into Sunday. This one looks fairly weak and fast-moving so
scattered showers are a good bet with light precipitation amounts.
Models continue to advertise a wet and unsettled next week with
several chances for additional widespread precipitation. CEO

&&

.AVIATION...An upper level trough will push inland tonight and
Wednesday for increasing clouds and rain. The flow aloft is S/SW.
Rain will reach the coast by 12z with rain in the interior by
15-18z. Expect cigs in the 3000-5000 ft range with showers in the
vicinity through the afternoon. 33

KSEA...VFR tonight. Rain spreading inland by 15-18z Wed. S/SE
winds at the surface to 10 kt. 33

&&

.MARINE...South to southeast flow will increase tonight as a
front approaches from the west - Small Craft Advisories are in
effect. Gales are likely over the eastern Strait of Juan de Fuca.
This system will split and weaken as it moves inland Wednesday
night. A stronger Pacific frontal system will impact the region on
Thursday with gales possible, especially over the Coastal Waters
and the entrances to the strait. The flow will remain onshore
through this weekend. 33

&&

.HYDROLOGY...No flooding is indicated at this time for the next
seven days; however, there are some possibilities on the horizon. A
stormy period this Wednesday through Friday could put as much 2 to 4
inches of precipitation over the Olympics with less over the
Cascades. This could push the Skokomish River close to or exceed
flood stage. That is not the likely scenarios at this time because
the precipitation looks to be to spread out over the time period.
Lowering snow levels during the period, if low enough, could reduce
storm runoff into the streams as well.

The GFS is showing a much stronger storm mid-week next week that has
the possibility of flood-producing precipitation amounts over the
Olympics and Cascades.
