Fxus66 ksew 192145 afdsew area forecast discussion national weather service seattle wa 245 pm pdt Mon aug 19 2019 Synopsis A warming trend will take place through Tuesday across the region as a ridge of high pressure builds in. This will be brief as a trough of low pressure pushes in from the pacific into central bc and provides cooler temperatures and rain across the region through Wednesday night. A weak high pressure will build back into the region for the late week with temperatures near normal. There may be a few showers around on Saturday, but otherwise it will be a mainly dry stretch of weather to close out this week. Short term tonight through Thursday Clouds have been slow and stubborn to fully dissipate, although most areas have at least developed Sun breaks at this time and many areas have become mostly sunny. Temperatures are running from near to slightly below normal at this hour with 60s and lower 70s across the area. A mid level trough of low pressure will slide northeast out of the pacific from later tonight into Tuesday. Ahead of the system, increasing 500mb heights across western washington will set the stage for a warmup tomorrow. Highs will be a good 5-10 degrees warmer than today, with many low 80s developing. Skies will be sunnier as well, but should steadily cloud up from west to east in advance of this approaching system. The system will bring rain to the coast by early Wednesday morning and spread steadily east through the afternoon hours. Heaviest rain totals will be on the olympic peninsula to the coast with lighter amounts farther east. Temperatures will remain mainly in the 60s on Wednesday with the clouds and showers. While this system has plenty of moisture, it looks to remain progressive as the trough axis crosses the area by late Wednesday afternoon and conditions become just showery overnight Wednesday with chances diminishing by daybreak Thursday. Heights remain relatively high on Thursday and even begin to increase again as a strong ridge over the eastern pacific builds south of the area. The ridge will not make too much northern progression this week however as a trough well to the north will hold it at bay and keep more of a flat ridge or zonal flow in place. This will mean Thursday should be near normal with decreasing cloudiness. Long term Friday through Monday For the extended portion of the forecast, the zonal flow will continue with a strong mid level ridge staying well south of the

area. Some indication of possible showers on Saturday but the bulk of the system should remain north and so will include only small chances of rain on Saturday. Either way, temperatures will linger around normal through the weekend, in the upper 60s and lower 70s. By early next week the focus will begin to shift on northward expansion of the strong ridge to our south. This may set the stage for an eventual return to hot weather to close out august. Although this is a little past the current forecast period, it is worth noting that CPC highlights the area for a risk of excessive heat the last few days of the month. Will have to continue to monitor this possibility but there is a lot of time between now and then where the forecast may change. Aviation Light low level flow into Tuesday morning. Westerly flow aloft becoming southwesterly tonight and Tuesday. Clouds continue to thin over much of the area this afternoon although a lingering patch of stratus remains over portions of the coast. Otherwise... All obs are indicating widespreadVFR conditions. Given weak low level flow expected tonight and into Tuesday morning... Extent of marine stratus will be limited to the coast including hqm... Possibly extending to olm. The remainder of W wa should see clear skies starting tonight and continuing into Tuesday. Ksea...VFR conditions with continued gradual improvement as clouds continue to scatter. Clear skies expected overnight. Southwest winds will become northerly around 00z. Wind speeds will be generally around 5 knots. Smr Marine Light low level flow tonight becoming southerly and increasing Tuesday as a front approaches the waters. The well organized front will move through Wednesday with small craft advisory southerlies still expected to occur ahead of the front over the coastal waters, entrances to the strait of juan de fuca and northern inland waters and post frontal small craft westerlies in the strait. Models remain consistent in this feature... But as these wind speeds still fall in the third period... Will leave headlines to future shifts. High pressure will build over the coastal waters behind the front Thursday. A weaker front will move by to the north later Friday. Smr Hydrology The daily hydrology discussion has ended until the start of the next rainy season; it will only be updated as needed until then. Sew watches warnings advisories Wa... None. Pz... None.

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.
