What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Seattle, WA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at May 16, 8:08 PM PDT, 6 hours 48 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 16, 8:08 PM PDT, 6 hours 48 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Seattle WA
808 PM PDT Sun May 16 2021
.SYNOPSIS...An upper level ridge will weaken and shift eastward
tonight. An upper level trough and associated frontal system will
move into the region Monday into Monday night. This will lead to
a decided shift toward much cooler and unsettled conditions that
will linger through much of the week ahead. Drier and warmer
conditions are possible by next weekend under a weak upper ridge.
&&
.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...No major forecast
updates were made this evening. Marine stratus this evening is
beginning its eastward trek inland and will continue to do so
overnight as a stronger onshore push is maintained through the
night. Previous discussion still holds as follows: The marine
layer is expected to deepen quickly overnight. It wouldn't be too
surprising to see some areas of drizzle around Puget Sound on
Monday morning. Mostly cloudy skies will stick around through the
day on Monday and high temperatures will take a tumble across the
interior...with many spots some 10 to 15 degrees cooler than
today.
A frontal system will approach by Monday evening with rain
chances increasing by nightfall. QPF continues to look relatively
light with this system with perhaps one or two tenths of an inch
around Puget Sound, but higher amounts for portions of the coast
and the mountains. Snow levels will dip to around 3500 feet by
Tuesday morning, but snow amounts at higher pass levels are not
expected to be particularly impactful.
The upper trough will shift onshore on Tuesday and, with it, a
continuation of shower activity...especially in the convergence
zone. There could be some very modest instability associated with
it, but for now have not included any mention of thunder. The
upper trough remains over the region into Wednesday for a
lingering chance of showers. Temperatures both Tuesday and
Wednesday will be on the cool side with highs 50s to lower 60s
and lows mostly in the 40s.
.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...The upper trough will
gradually sink south of the area Thursday into Friday with high
temperatures recovering somewhat and shower activity becoming
increasingly focused over the higher terrain. Seasonal
temperatures and generally dry conditions are expected toward the
weekend, but the degree of warming will be largely dependent on
the strength of upper ridging that builds into the region behind
the slowly exiting trough. 27/Kristell
&&
.AVIATION...Western WA will remain under zonal flow tonight.
Onshore flow will increase tonight with coastal stratus clouds
pushing inland. The extent of coverage will be greater across the
lowlands and most areas will likely see MVFR to IFR ceilings
through Monday morning. Expect scattered showers in the area
Monday afternoon and evening as a trough moves inland. 33
KSEA...VFR this evening then low clouds and MVFR to IFR cigs by
12-14z as stratus clouds move in. Winds W to SW 4-8 kt this
evening becoming more S/SW around 10 kt after 09z. 33
&&
.MARINE...A strong onshore push will develop tonight with westerly
gales force winds likely through the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Winds
will gradually ease Monday morning. Onshore flow will increase
again Monday night as a cold front moves inland. The flow will
remain onshore through the end of the week. 33
&&
.HYDROLOGY...The daily hydrology discussion has ended until the
start of the next rainy season; it will only be updated as needed
until then.
&&
.SEW WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
WA...None.
PZ...Small Craft Advisory from 7 AM to noon PDT Monday for Central
U.S. Waters Strait Of Juan De Fuca-East Entrance U.S.
