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 Dec 29, 9:00 AM PST, 5 hours 43 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Dec 29, 9:00 AM PST, 5 hours 43 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Seattle WA
900 AM PST Wed Dec 29 2021
.UPDATE...No updates to the current forecast this morning. The
shortwave trough that pushed through the area last night was an
underperformer in terms of snowfall development. Recent MRMS data
shows all snow activity over the E WA/E OR border. Clear skies
prevail over W WA this morning with temps (around 830am) in the
teens to low 20s. Little change in the airmass today will
translate to highs still below freezing despite clear skies. High
clouds will increase from the north later this afternoon and
evening, ahead of the next rain and snow producer. More on this
system later this afternoon.
Previous discussion follows below with an updated aviation
section.
Kovacik
&&
.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 323 AM PST Wed Dec 29 2021/
.SYNOPSIS...Today will be dry with windy conditions and bitter
wind chills for the north interior. A weather system will bring
snow or a rain/snow mix tonight and Thursday. A warmer system
will bring the return to the typical lowland rain/mountain snow
pattern over the weekend.
&&
.SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...An upper short wave in the
northerly flow aloft does not seem to have enough moisture or lift
to generate much in the way of snow showers this morning. So,
today looks dry and cold with highs in the mid 20s to lower 30s.
Fraser outflow and the resulting gusty northeast winds and very
cold wind chills will peak this morning and then ease late this
morning and afternoon. The associated wind and wind chill
advisories will end early this afternoon.
A weather disturbance will drop down from the north/northwest
tonight and Thursday, brining another shot of lowland snow.
Precipitation will spread into the area after midnight, then
decrease from the northwest Thursday afternoon. Precipitation
should switch to rain pretty fast at the coast then turn to a
rain/snow mix for much of the interior late Thursday morning. New
snow accumulations still look to be generally 1-3" with a small
chance of as much as 3-5". The morning hours are when most of the
lowland accumulations are expected. The mountains will also pick
up a good shot of snow with 6-12" expected in the passes. Highs
Thursday will be in the lower to mid 30s for most of the interior
and upper 30s or lower 40s for the coast.
Rain and snow will mostly move south of the area Thursday evening
with dry north/northwest flow aloft on Friday. There will be
another uptick in northeast Fraser outflow behind the Thursday
system but not as strong as recent events and not enough for any
headlines. Highs Friday will be mostly in the lower to mid 30s.
Lows will continue in the upper teens and 20s the next few nights
so any melting on roadways during the daytime hours will likely
refreeze at night. 16
.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...A weak front front will
bring spotty light precipitation on Saturday. It should start out
as snow for the interior then switch over the rain/snow mix in the
morning and mostly all rain by mid to late afternoon as
temperatures warm to near 40.
A wetter Pacific frontal system will move through the area Sunday
and Monday. Temperatures will remain below normal but it looks
warm enough for all rain for the lowlands. The mountains should
pick up a good shot of snow. It also looks windy at the coast and
north interior, especially on Sunday. A cool upper trough over
the northeast Pacific will maintain showers with low snow levels
on Tuesday. 16
&&
AVIATION...Clear skies into the afternoon today, with high clouds
increasing from the north through the evening. Ceilings will
gradually lower to MVFR tonight as winter precip spreads back in.
Expect a few inches of new snow accumulation by Thursday
morning/afternoon, except for maybe HQM where temps may moderate
enough for mostly rain. OLM may see a mix of rain/snow at times,
with most other terminals remaining snow. Shadowing over the
Olympics and Vancouver Is could limit snowfall around PWT, SEA,
and BFI. North wind today 5-12kts, shifting to the SE in the 5-7pm
timeframe 5-10kts. BLI will be gusty this morning (around 35 kts)
and again after midnight (around 25 kts).
KSEA...Clear skies/VFR into the afternoon with high clouds moving
in late this afternoon and eventually lowering to MVFR tonight as
snow moves in. Shadowing may limit snow amounts into Thursday, but
the airport may still receive 1-2 inches. Winds NE today around
10kts will shift SE around the 5p-7p timeframe linger in the 6-8kt
range.
Kovacik
&&
.MARINE...Fraser outflow winds have started to increase overnight
and are expected to persist through the morning hours, before
easing. Thus, gale warnings remain in effect for the Northern
Inland Waters as well as the Eastern Strait of Juan de Fuca through
early afternoon today. A freezing spray advisory remains in
effect for these areas as well as the combination of winds and
very cold air, paired with relatively warm water temperatures,
may produce pockets of freezing spray across portions of these
area waters. Elsewhere, small craft advisories are in effect
through the morning hours. Relatively light winds are expected
across the area waters once the Fraser Outflow eases late this
morning, however southerly winds will start to ramp up late tonight
and into Thursday as a stronger system approaches and moves through
the region. This will likely bring another round of small craft
headlines to the area waters. Yet another stronger system is then
slated to progress through the region over the weekend.
Seas will continue to build to 6 to 9 ft over the coastal waters
early this morning and persist at this range through the day. Seas
will then increase to near 10 ft later in the week as stronger
weather systems move across the area waters. 14
&&
.HYDROLOGY...River flooding is unlikely for the next 7 days.
