through late afternoon and evening for a brief period of dry weather
before the next fronts move through Saturday.

The Saturday weather system is going to be the weakest in the
series of systems we have been having. More widespread rain is
expected with some breezy winds immediately by the waters. But
other than that not much in the way of impacts from this system. A
much stronger system will be making its approach late Saturday
night.

The aforementioned system approaching late Saturday early Sunday
is expected to be the strongest in this series of systems
impacting the West Coast. This system will bring with it multiple
weather hazards. Wind, Rain, Thunderstorms, High Surf, and the
Mountain Snow will be discussed separately below. Note that there
is still uncertainty on the behavior of this system. While models
are all in agreement that the low will strengthen and approach the
Washington coast, there is still no consensus agreement on what
happens after that. Some ensemble members have it staying strong
and heading towards W WA, others have it weakening quickly as it
approaches the shore. And others have it moving north as the
previous systems have. Due to the uncertainty in the track and
strength progression of the system there is uncertainty in the
magnitude of the impacts that are discussed below (especially the
wind).

Wind:
Easterly winds are expected to pick up Sunday morning due to
a tightening pressure gradient. The strongest winds with these
easterlies will mostly be confined to the typical locations of the
coast, along the Northern Inland waters, through the Strait and
the Cascade gaps. However, there is the potential for some gusty
conditions area wide. Winds are expected to become southerly
during the afternoon with highest speeds along the waters. With
the potential for the southern portions of the forecast area
joining in. That said, all of Western Washington should prepare
for a windy Sunday as there is still a lot of uncertainty when it
comes to the exact magnitude of the winds as well as the timing.

Rain:
There is more confidence in the forecast rain than there is the
wind forecast. Widespread rain is expect for the whole region.
There will be periods of heavy rain which will reduce visibility
and will likely pond up briefly (especially if there is any debris
in storm drains). Rainfall amounts can easily be broken up into
two sections: the Olympic Peninsula and elsewhere. The Olympic
Peninsula will likely see 2-3 inches with higher amounts in
localized areas (3-4") and the mountains themselves (4-6"
possible). Elsewhere 0.5-1 inch is likely, with the Cascade Ridge
being on the higher end with maybe an additional half inch at the
highest elevations. The cumulative affect of the previous rains
and this event is going to cause rivers to rise, see hydrology
section below for more details.

Thunderstorms:
There is forecasted to be a significant amount of instability
throughout the day Sunday, particularly along the coast. With
warm air advection at the surface and significantly colder air
aloft, it will not take much upward forcing for convection to
start. With the strengthening low, there will be a good amount of
shear which will help keep whatever storms that form alive. While
there is a chance for storms to form throughout the day, the
greatest chance will be during the afternoon hours at the coast.

High Surf:
With a large west swell building behind the front and reaching the
coast late Sunday and into Monday, there does remain some concern
for high surf along the ocean beaches. Along with this possible
concern, will also need to continue to monitor the total water
level guidance as a combination of tide and storm surge may be
sufficient to possibly create some minor tidal overflow issues.
However, due to the uncertainty of the track and progression of
the low itself there is still quite a bit of uncertainty
associated with this.

Mountain Snow:
Snow levels will be slow to drop with this system. At the start of
the day Sunday snow levels are expected to be around 5000 feet,
and will actually rise to around 6000 feet in the afternoon as we
are in the warm sector of the storm. Levels will not be dropping
down to 4500 feet until very early Monday morning. As a result we
are not anticipating any flakes at the passes until late Sunday
with accumulations not expected until later Monday.

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...Western Washington will
still be feeling the affects of the low on Sunday, by this point
the center of the low will have moved and things should start to
ease. However, rain and breezy to windy conditions as well as
mountain snow will continue.
With the overall pattern not changing much we anticipate the jet
stream to keep acting as a conveyor belt for weather systems.
The string of fronts and lows will continue to provide widespread
rain, gusty winds and mountain snow. Ensembles are showing a very
slight chance that things could dry out slightly towards the end
of next week. And by dry out we aren't expecting dry, just
drier...maybe.

.AVIATION...An area of disorganized shower activity and perhaps a
weak trough will probably give areas of MVFR cigs as it moves
through the area today. There are likely some lower cigs in place
near the foothills and mountains already and the mountains are
mostly obscured. The webcams at Paradise and Hurricane Ridge look
pretty grey--a typical drippy cloudy day for Western WA today. 19

KSEA...Cigs might drop a little midday with an area of showers.
Saturday will be rainy as a front reaches the area.

&&

.MARINE...A weak disturbance is moving ashore today with showery
weather. A typical cold front will move through the area Saturday
morning. A 948mb storm will move over the near offshore waters
Sunday as the strong front moves through Western Washington. That
deep low pressure system over the offshore waters on Sunday is
expected to track toward northern Vancouver Island on Monday. There
is a small craft advisory up for today for the seas over the coastal
waters but the higher surf wont arrive til later Sunday through
Monday after the storm moves through the near offshore waters. 19

&&

.HYDROLOGY...A fairly active weather pattern across western
Washington for much of the forecast period will lead to increased
flow in area rivers. While river flooding is not currently
forecast for area rivers, it cannot be ruled out due to the
cumulative rainfall expected throughout the next week. Rivers,
particularly the Skokomish, will need to continue to be closely
monitored. While the amount of rainfall is not completely out of
the ordinary for this area, the rivers have little time between
systems to recover. So as a result, instead of rising and
lowering between rain events they increase in a step like
fashion. The cumulative affect of all this rain could result in
flooding by next week.
