| Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Seattle WA 1023am PST Wednesday Nov 5 2025 Synopsis Warm frontal rain is still progressing through western Washington, with breezy to windy conditions lingering along the coast and through the north interior. The trailing cold front will stall over the area this evening before dissipating. An atmospheric river will move in on Thursday for rain and windy conditions through Friday. Upper level ridging will take hold for the weekend for a break in the weather before an active pattern resumes early next week. Short Term - Today through Friday The forecast is largely unchanged this morning, but a coastal flood advisory has been added for Port Angeles during today's high tide up to a half a foot of inundation. The rest of the previous discussion can be found below, with an update to the aviation section. As the front moves in and stalls, the region will see steady rainfall with Quantitative Precipitation Forecast amounts between 2-3 inches in the Olympics and 1-2 inches in the Cascades. Lowland Puget Sound locations will receive around half to an inch of rain through tonight. Temperatures will be unseasonably mild, with highs climbing into the mid-to- upper 50s, and some spots potentially touching 60 degrees. Active weather is favored into Thursday as well. Another round of widespread rainfall and breezy winds will take aim across the region. The heaviest rainfall will be focused on the Olympic Mountains and the Cascades. Winds will be gusty particularly on the coast and through the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Highs will remain mild in the mid-to-upper 50s. Snow levels will start high but begin to fall to around 5,000 feet by late in the day. The pattern will begin to shift east on Friday. The day will start with lingering rain, tapering to scattered showers by the afternoon. Some afternoon clearing is possible, especially for inland areas. It will be noticeably cooler, with highs in the low-to-mid 50s and snow levels dropping to near 4,000 feet. Hazards during the short-term include: Coastal Flooding: A Coastal Flood Warning is in effect for the central and northern Washington coast (including areas like La Push, Westport, and Grays Harbor) for Wednesday and Thursday. The combination of very high astronomical "king tides" and low pressure from storms will lead to moderate or major coastal flooding. Low-lying coastal areas are at risk for significant inundation, erosion, and damage. A new Coastal Flood Advisory has been issued for Port Angeles for water inundation of around a half a foot covering today's high tide. High Surf: A High Surf Advisory is in effect for the coast on Thursday. Dangerous waves of 20 to 25 feet will create hazardous conditions on beaches and jetties. River Flooding: Rivers will rise sharply in response to the heavy rain. The Skokomish River in Mason County is the most likely to reach flood stage, possibly as early as Thursday night. Other rivers, like the Snoqualmie and Skykomish, will see sharp rises but are currently expected to remain at or below "action stage." Landslide Risk: Due to the cumulative rainfall, soils will become saturated. The risk for landslides will increase, especially by late Thursday and Friday in landslide-prone areas. Long Term - Friday Night Through Tuesday A significant pattern change is expected for the weekend. A ridge of high pressure is forecast to build over the Pacific Northwest, shutting off robust chances of rain and wind. This should lead to a much- deserved drier weekend in what seems like a while. Expect patchy morning fog, especially in the usual spots, followed by partly to mostly sunny skies. High temperatures will be pleasant for November, remaining in the mid-50s. Clouds may begin to increase later on Sunday as the next system approaches from the Pacific. The dry spell looks to be short-lived. Rain is likely to return to the forecast on Monday as the next frontal system moves inland. Tuesday may feature lingering showers with some partial clearing. Marine Gales are expected coastal waters and portions of the strait into this evening with advisories all other waters as vigorous frontal system lifts across the area. A secondary frontal system will reach the area late Thursday with additional headlines likely. Weak high pressure builds inland over the weekend for a trend toward somewhat quieter conditions. Coastal seas will rise sharply today into Thursday...peaking at 18 to 22 feet before gradually subsiding toward the weekend. Hydrology Predicted rainfall totals over the south slopes of the Olympics from Wednesday night through Friday morning continue to be in the 3 to 5 inches range with locally higher amounts possible. Snow levels will range between 5500-7000 ft, which means precipitation will be rain over the Skokomish. This amount of rainfall has a good chance of causing the river to go above flood stage as early as Thursday night. A flood watch will continue for Mason county for Thursday afternoon through Saturday morning. Rainfall amounts in the Cascades forecast to be a little less, in the 2 to 4 inch range. Snow levels will start off at 7000 ft today and decrease to 5000 ft on Thursday morning. Then, snow levels increase Thursday afternoon to 6000-6500 ft. No flooding is predicted at this time for rivers flowing off the Cascades. The Snoqualmie, Skykomish and Snohomish could get into action stage with the heavier rain in the headwaters. 29 NOAA Seattle WA Office: Watches - Warnings - Advisories WA...Winter Weather Advisory until 10am PST Friday for Cascades of Whatcom and Skagit Counties.
