Scattered showers around W WA. A cell in S #Snohomish county could have small hail & brief heavy rain as it moves to the NE. No #lightning strikes have been detected, but cannot rule 1 or 2 out for this storm. When thunder roars, go indoors! #wawx
UPDATE-previous cell has weakened & moved into Cascades. Another cell has popped up behind it, N of #Bothell, around #Clearview & #Maltby in #Snohomish county. Small hail, heavy rain & #lightning strike or 2 might be possible. We'll keep an 👁️ on it. #wawx
Some radar estimated rainfall amounts of those storms that have been training over S #Snohomish county over the past hour are in the 1/2 to 1 inch range. That's a lot of water. Be wary of ponding on roadways. #wawx

Here's a meteorological explanation of WHY it will become so warm & smoky this weekend.

1) We've got a strong ridge of high pressure in the upper levels of the atmosphere. It's deflecting any weather away from us. It's also composed of sinking air that warms as it does so.
2) But it's more than what's happening aloft. Near surface weather is hugely impactful as well. High pressure east of Cascades is pushing air toward the coast. This is called offshore flow. At the same time, warm air expands north and westward over western Oregon and Washington.
3) This causes what's known as thermally induced low pressure to form and deepen near the ground surface. As the thermal trough strengthens west of the Cascades, a surface ridge strengthens east of the mountains.

⚠TSUNAMI ADVISORY⚠

The National Tsunami Warning Center has issued a TSUNAMI ADVISORY for the Washington coast, resulting from a volcanic eruption near Tonga around 830pm Fri PST.

More information to follow.
This is for the outer coast, Strait of Juan de Fuca coast, and San Juan Islands.
What does this mean? Strong currents and larger waves are possible along these coastal areas. The first wave may not be largest.

What should you do? Move off the beach and out of harbors and marinas in these areas.

As you can see on the map at weather.gov excessive heat watches are now up for later this week. Here in Western WA it will be hot Thursday through Saturday (but not as hot as it was at the end of June). Here in Seattle we should see three days in the lower to mid 90s.
Here are some specifics on the temperature ranges for the bulk of the heat wave. The main caveat of course, would be the impact of upper level smoke and haze. In the next tweet, you'll see the chances of records being tied or exceeded. #wawx
Here are the chances of records being tied or broken on Friday and Saturday at a few locations. The daily record at SeaTac on the 13th is 92 (2002) and 95 on the 14th (2010). #wawx

Another round of morning thoughts from the forecast desk:

- A modified arctic front will lead to a few snow showers mainly north of Seattle today.
- The front will bring cold, but increasingly drier air to much of the region on Thursday.
- The weather system on Thursday will be battling this very dry air.
- Because of this dry air in place, we expect the best snowfall accumulation potential Thursday afternoon and night will be south of Tacoma.
- This won't be a "one and done" situation.
- Another weather system arrives Fri night & Saturday A.M. This one has greater snowfall potential across a larger portion of Western WA.
- There is still some considerable uncertainty on amounts.
- Saturday's system is less a question of "Will it snow?", but rather "How much?"

First call snow map for Thursday-Friday Morning:

Confidence is increasing in lowland snow for Thursday-Friday morning. Expect some adjustment to these snow amounts as we approach the event. Another round of snow potentially Friday night into the weekend. #WAwx
