Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Seattle WA
832 PM PDT Tue Jul 13 2021

.SYNOPSIS...Temperatures will continue to trend cooler through
Friday before another warm up returns over the weekend. Expect a
nightly push of marine stratus into interior portions of Western
Washington, resulting in morning fog and low clouds. Portions of
the area could see some drizzle or light rain Friday.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...No updates this evening,
previous discussion follows. Another dose of marine
stratus will make its way inland tonight. The zonal flow aloft
will only enhance the marine layer as well as keep most of the
atmospheric column moist. As a result, marine stratus will be slow
to mix out. With the prolonged stratus temperatures will be a bit
cooler, with highs in the 70s for much of the region and 60s
along the coast. This trend will continue on through Thursday.
Now, possibly the most exciting portion of the forecast in the
coming days is the chance of some light rain or drizzle on
Friday! Unfortunately, this precipitation will not be wide spread
and where it does occur it won't be very heavy. Those of you
along the coast, the northern Olympic Peninsula and San Juans will
be the most likely to experience this exciting weather. For
everyone else, expect cloudy skies and highs in the low 70s.

Butwin

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...Ensembles are in agreement
that a high will be building up over the Rockies and a trough will
extend down from the Gulf of Alaska and be centered well
offshore. This will give Western Washington South/Southwest flow
aloft and is expected to create a bit of a warm up through the
forecast period. This pattern will also keep conditions dry
throughout the area. With the increasing number of fires to our
south, the southerly component of the flow will be something to
watch as it is not impossible for some smoke to be advected into
the Western Washington area.

Butwin

&&

.AVIATION...West to southwesterly flow aloft continues into
Wednesday as a weak upper ridge axis exits the region. Moderate
onshore flow persists in the lower levels. Stratus will spread
inland from the coast overnight producing IFR or low MVFR ceilings
across most of the lowland interior from 12Z to 18Z Wednesday
morning. The stratus will gradually burn back to near the coast by
afternoon with VFR expected across the interior by 19Z or 20Z.

KSEA...VFR conditions through late this evening then stratus rolls
back in around 12Z, bringing a return to IFR conditions. VFR
expected to return by early Wednesday afternoon. Surface winds light
westerly becoming light S/SW overnight.   27

&&

.MARINE...Varying degrees of onshore flow through much of the week
with surface high pressure centered well offshore extending over the
coastal waters and lower pressure east of the Cascades.

Stronger onshore flow through Thursday will produce advisory level
winds across the coastal waters at times and likely gales in the
central and eastern portions of the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Winds
will weaken late in the week as a weak trough moves through the
area. Surface ridging will rebuild over the coastal waters this
weekend for a return to a fairly typical summer pattern with
diurnally driven increases in onshore flow producing advisory level
westerlies in the strait each afternoon and evening. 27
