.SYNOPSIS FOR WASHINGTON AND OREGON WATERS...A cold front will
move SE across the Oregon waters tonight. High pressure will
build SW of the waters Sun into Mon as low pressure tracks slowly
SE toward the region from the Gulf of Alaska. This low will
weaken and move SE over the Washington waters Mon into Mon night,
and then move inland and dissipate Tue as a high pressure ridge
moves E toward the outer waters. The ridge will move over the
waters Tue night, and prevail Wed and Wed night as a low pressure
trough forms near the Oregon coast. The trough will strengthen
Thu and Thu night as the high drifts E and weakens. A warm front
will approach the area from the W later Thu night.
