Fxus66 ksew 211636 afdsew area forecast discussion national weather service seattle wa 936 am pdt Tue aug 21 2018 Update The current forecast is overall in good shape this morning. As offshore flow continues... Thick wildfire smoke will linger across western washington for the remainder of today. Current air quality ALERT continues to cover the unhealthy conditions expected across the local area. The overall synoptic pattern is not expected to change much over the next 24 hours as ridging aloft continues to build along the pacnw and bc coasts and allow for the primary airmass source region to be from bc. Main forecast concern as a result of the smoke today will be the temperatures... Which may end up a few degrees shy of current forecast values. The ridge should begin to dampen late Wednesday as the flow becomes more cyclonic in association with next approaching shortwave trough. Kovacik Prev discussion issued 258 am pdt Tue aug 21 2018 Synopsis Offshore wind flow will continue to bring smoke into western washington through Wednesday. A turn to cooling onshore flow is expected Wednesday night and Thursday. Smoke is expected to gradually decrease on Thursday. Onshore flow will continue Friday and Saturday. An upper low could move across the area on Sunday, bringing a few showers that could linger into Monday. Short term Low level offshore flow today will switch to onshore during the day Wednesday. This should help clear smoke out of the area Wednesday night and Thursday. Until then, smoke and poor air quality will continue. An air quality ALERT is in effect through Wednesday. It may need to be extended into Thursday. That decision will be made on Wednesday. Highs today will be above normal but 5-10 degrees cooler than guidance due to all the smoke. The coast will cool to near normal on Wednesday as onshore flow develops but the interior should see

minor cooling at best. An upper trough will move over the area on Thursday but it looks dry for the most part. A marine push will spread low clouds inland Wednesday night and cool highs to near or slightly below normal all areas on Thursday. There could also be some drizzle Wednesday night and Thursday morning - mainly towards the coast. Schneider Long term An upper trough will push east of the area Friday with low level onshore flow continuing and slightly below normal highs. There might be a few showers but mostly it looks dry with morning clouds and partial afternoon sunshine. A couple of additional upper level troughs will swing through the area this weekend and into early next week. This will maintain cool weather across the area with a chance of showers. The best chance of showers appears to be on Sunday although confidence in the details is not high for now. Schneider Aviation Skies will remain smoky today with N NE flow over the region. Visibility is generally 1-4sm in fu with a smoke layer 2000-5000 feet. The air mass is dry and stable with an upper level ridge over the region. Smoky conditions will continue through tonight. 33 ksea... Vis generally 1-4 miles in fu with a smoke layer around 4000-5000 feet. N wind to 10 kt. 33 Marine Offshore flow will prevail today due to a thermal trough along the coast. This flow pattern will continue to bring wildfire smoke into western washington. The flow will be nearly flat tonight as the thermal trough shifts inland. Strong onshore flow will develop on Wednesday with gales possible through the strait of juan de fuca. Onshore flow will continue through the end of the week. 33 Sew watches warnings advisories Wa... None. Pz... None.

Almost all of these also make simplifying assumptions so they are not totally accurate even if there are no errors. Please verify all results. 5) Weather information is from numerious of sources and is presented automatically. It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program.
