Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western Washington
National Weather Service Seattle WA
303 AM PDT Thu Mar 28 2024

.DISCUSSION....Low pressure spinning off the coast will maintain
scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms today, especially across
the Olympic Peninsula. Showers will gradually subside through the
day Friday giving way warmer and drier conditions as high pressure
builds into the area, resulting in above normal temperatures by
Sunday and Monday. A cold front is poised to move southward across
the Pacific Northwest Tuesday, bringing a return to a cooler and
wetter pattern into the middle part of next week.

 Forecast for 20 foot wind speed (valleys and ridge tops) are 10
 minute averages reflecting RAWS winds.
