East winds returning right on schedule. Already had a gust to 35 mph at ext. 32 I90 at 5 am. Winds due to an even stronger offshore Low (975 mb) than Saturday, but this one will stay further away, curling up well into BC. Expect about this intensity all day, until ~8pm.

The risk is low for >1" hail, but that risk is not zero
Main timing for the convective outbreak to move northward to the Puget Sound region still looks to be ~6-8pm

I90/SR18 station recorded 47 mph gust this am
Our 9th windstorm (8 of 9 E winds) with a gust >=40 mph this fall/winter season, par for the course, but our 4th major power disruption which I believe is on the high side. First storm having southerly winds that strong this season.

Not out of woods yet. Peak gust potential remains through ~ noon.
We've had max gust 37 mph at I90/SR18 xchange, and same out at ext 32 in North Bend, thus far relatively unscathed
Out west, Boeing Field clocked a 60 mph gust.

Another 3.5" (13" since last Sunday). This has been a perfect setup out here, nothing that buries us, but a good shot each day with no east winds drying out the air and knocking the beautiful snow off the trees.

Another 3" at HQ (~800ft.). 10" since Sun, surpassing last year's 5-yr low of 7" for the entirety of the 2023-24 season. Measurable snow before midnight Fri would be 6 days in a row, a new record since I started writing this stuff down in 2018.

It also had one of only 4 days in the past 20 years where Sea-Tac reported 0 cloud cover for an entire day in January. #wawx

In the near-term we have these east winds picking up strength Friday morning, peaking ~30-40 mph around 7 am.
Ho-hum weather outlook otherwise. We're likely to remain above normal temperatures for this time of year.
