10/9/2019 Updated the Marine Zones. 9/4/2019 Fixed the weather maps due to NOAA moving them. 7/25/2019 New feature in the Airports section gives a link to 5 minute updates for data reports. 6/2/2019. Many thanks to a user for reporting an error on one of the Edit pages. The switch to PHP 7.2 caused many pages that previously worked to quit working. I fixed many but I still depend on users to report ones I missed. Please report errors HERE or send an email to me at L-36.com. Allen |

Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Seattle WA 845 PM PST Fri Dec 6 2019
SYNOPSIS. A weak front will bring a little rain through Saturday morning. The associated low will move east of the area Saturday night. An upper ridge will build offshore on Sunday for dry weather through early Tuesday. The next system should slide through later Tuesday with unsettled conditions persisting thereafter.
SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/. A weak front will bring spotty light rain tonight and Saturday morning. Showers will taper later Saturday with a weak upper trough over the area. The low levels will be moist with light flow for plenty of clouds even after the rain ends.
A few showers will linger Saturday night into Sunday morning but it should be largely dry by Sunday as an upper ridge builds into the area from the west. The upper ridge will move over the area on Monday for a dry day. Clouds will probably linger on Sunday with low level moisture and light flow. Sunbreaks are more likely on Monday as the low levels dry. Temperatures will be slightly above normal each day.
LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/. Previous discussion . A weakening front is slated to arrive on Tuesday. It continues to look fairly inconsequential, but it does open to the door for a potentially more active period for the later half of next week. Deterministic model runs and ensembles still point toward a series of systems reaching the area with lower heights . and more importantly . lower snow levels. 27
AVIATION. A weak front will move through the area tonight with south to southwest flow aloft. A weak upper trough will move over the area on Saturday with westerly flow aloft. At the surface, southeast flow will weaken tonight, followed by weak low pressure over the area on Saturday. The air mass is moist and stable.
There is a mix of low and mid clouds across the area this evening. The trend tonight should be for increasing low clouds. Widespread low clouds are expected for Saturday although ceilings will probably improve a bit later in the morning and in the afternoon with some daytime heating.
KSEA . Mid clouds this evening then low clouds after midnight. Low clouds should be prevalent on Saturday, possibly lifting a bit into the afternoon. Southeast wind 3-6 knots.
MARINE. A weak front will bring marginal small craft advisory strength southeast winds to the Coastal Waters, Northern Inland Waters, and East Entrance Strait of Juan de Fuca tonight.
Weak low pressure on Saturday will give way to high pressure Sunday and Monday with relatively light winds each day. Another weak front will move through the area later Tuesday and Tuesday night.
HYDROLOGY. River flooding is unlikely for the next 7 days.

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. |
