Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Seattle WA 248am PDT Thu Mar 27 2025 Synopsis Upper level low remaining off the coast into Friday keeping showers in the forecast. Low weakening to an upper level trough and moving inland Friday night. Next system arriving late in the weekend. Another upper level low off the coast for the first part of next week. Short Term - Today through Saturday A deep, stacked, low continues to spin offshore, with moist S/SW flow across western WA. Still seeing plenty of showers across the region this morning with light to moderate precipitation. The air mass remains slightly unstable today with isolated thunderstorms possible, however, the highest threat is east of the Cascades. Winds will be breezy along the coast and north interior with S/SE gusts to 30-40 mph. Showers will continue tonight into Friday with a focus for heavier precipitation along the coast and Olympics, aided by a trough axis. This may result in renewed flooding of the Skokomish River and a Flood Watch remains in effect for Mason County. Troughing over the region keeps the air mass cool and showery moving into the weekend. On Saturday, snow levels will drop to around 3000 ft with light snow in the mountains and passes. Temperatures return to normal with lows in the 40s and highs in the low to mid 50s. 33 Long Term - Sunday Through Wednesday Weak upper level ridging will bring a brief break to the weather on Sunday. Morning lows will be cooler and in the 30s. Highs may reach the lower 60s in the interior. More wet weather is headed our way early next week as low pressure shifts inland. The mountains will see a few more inches of snow with snow levels hovering around 3000 ft. A trough digs offshore toward midweek, then shifts inland, thus keeping rain in the forecast throughout. 33 Marine 980 mb surface low continues offshore with inclement conditions. Gales will go into effect this morning and remain into tonight over the coastal waters. In addition, an SCA (Small Craft Advisory) will go into effect for East Entrance this morning through at least Friday. More SCAs (Small Craft Advisories) may be needed for neighboring waters such as the Northern Inland zone tonight into Friday. Weak upper level ridge building over the waters Saturday-Saturday night with winds easing. Next surface low associated with the negatively tilted trough late in the weekend staying well offshore. Seas building into the 12 to 15 foot range today will subside to near 10 feet Friday night and Saturday. Seas continuing to subside Sunday into Monday. McMillian Hydrology Precipitation will continue into the first part of next week with Sunday looking like the only dry day at this time. The precipitation is not expected to cause significant rises to area rivers. The exception is the Skokomish River, where heavy showers are favored to bring the Skokomish into flood stage by late Thursday evening. The river will crest near moderate flood stage Friday and remain over flood stage into Saturday. Large uncertainty exists over the amount of precipitation over the basin. Conditions will continue to be closely monitored.
