...Strong Cold Front To Impact Region With Rain...Wind...And Heavy Swells Along The Beaches Late This Week..
A Strong Low Pressure System Is Beginning To Get Organized In The Gulf Of Alaska Today...And Will Rapidly Strengthen Into A Powerful Storm Tonight And Wednesday. While The Center Of This Low Pressure System Is Expected To Remain In The Gulf Of Alaska...It Will Push A Strong Cold Front Onshore Into The Pacific Northwest Thursday.
Winds Associated With The Front May Gust As High As 50 To 60 Mph Near The Beaches And Coastal Headlands Thursday...As Well As Across The Higher Terrain Of The Coast Range And Cascades. The Front Will Likely Be Accompanied By A Period Of Heavy Rain.. Especially In The Coast Range Where Up To 2 To 3 Inches Of Rain Are Possible Thursday Through Thursday Night.
Snow Levels Will Start Off Well Above The Cascade Passes Early Thursday...But Are Expected To Fall Quickly As The Front Moves Across The Cascades Thursday Afternoon And Evening. By Friday Morning...Accumulating Snow Is Possible As Low As Some Of The Cascade Passes. With Cool Unsettled Weather Expected To Continue
For Several Days Behind The Front...Snow Showers May Continue Through The Weekend As Low As 3000 To 4000 Feet In Elevation.
Another Significant Aspect Of The Gulf Of Alaska Storm System Will Be The Very Large Ocean Swell Expected To Develop As The Storm Strengthens Wednesday. This Swell May Begin Impacting The South Washington And North Oregon Coast With High Surf As Early As Thursday Morning...With The Strongest Waves Impacting The Beaches
Thursday Night Through Saturday. The Heavy Surf May Provide The Possibility For Minor Coastal Flooding During High Tide...And The Large Breakers May Produce Hazardous Conditions Along The Beaches.
