MORE
MORE NINE
MORE NINE HUNDRED FLIGHTS HAVE BEEN CANCELED. SO WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT FIRST
TIME IN MORE THAN FIVE YEARS,
THAT IS A BIG WHOPPER OF A
SNOWSTORM REBECCA.
WELL, THAT'S WHY I LIVED THERE
AND WE WENT THROUGH STUFF LIKE
THAT.
BUT I GOT TO SAY THAT CITY
HANDLE SNOW AND INCREDIBLY WELL
YOU BLINK YOUR EYE AND THE SNOW
IS OFF THE SIDEWALKS BY THE
STORE OWNERS AND OFF THE
STREETS BY THE THE SNOW BLOWERS
.
IT'S INCREDIBLE DOESN'T HAPPEN
HERE IN SEATTLE THAT MUCH.
AND SO WE DON'T HAVE THE BUDGET
IN NEW YORK CITY DOES.
RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT.
WELL, LET'S TALK ABOUT THE SNOW
THAT WE HAVE HERE IN THE
PACIFIC NORTHWEST AND IT'S ALL
IN THE MOUNTAINS.
WE'VE GOT SOME TRACTION.
TIRES ARE ADVISED CURRENT
SNOWING RIGHT NOW AND SNOWING
PRETTY WELL AT WHITE PAHSE
THEATHER ROADS JUST GOT CLEARED
BUT TRACTION TIRES HAVE BEEN
REQUIRED WITH OVERSIZE VEHICLES
REQUIRING CHAIN.
SO IT'S PRETTY PRETTY ACTIVE UP
IN THE MOUNTAINS.
MISSION RIDGE IS LOOKING VERY
SNOWY HERE.
FINALLY COULD SEE A LITTLE BIT
IN THE BACKGROUND.
WE HAVE A WINTER WEATHER
ADVISORY OVER OUR OLYMPIC
MOUNTAINS UNTIL 4:00 A.M.
TOMORROW.
THE SNOW LEVELS COMING DOWN TO
ABOUT TWO THOUSAND FEET AND
WE'RE EXPECTING UP TO A FOOT
OF FRESH SNOW AND YES, A
SKOKOMISH RIVER STILL AT FLOOD
STAGE.
IT'S GOING TO BE RECEDING
THROUGH TOMORROW.
NOW WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY
ALSO FOR THE SOUTH CASCADES AND
OVER TOWARDS THE EAST SLOPES
THE CASCADES.
MOST OF OUR HEAVY SNOW ON THE
EAST SLOPES WILL BE FROM SOUTH
OF KITTITAS VALLEY BUT MAINLY
SOUTH OF I-95.
BUT WE'RE GETTING ABOUT FIVE TO
NINE INCHES OF SNOW THROUGH
10:00 A.M. WEDNESDAY THERE
ALONG THE EAST SLOPES AND FOR
THE SOUTH CASCADES MORE LIKE A
LITTLE OVER A FOOT AND POSSIBLY
A FOOT AND A HALF AT THE HIGHER
VOLCANOS.
BUT WE DO OUR MORNING HERE ON
THE LOWLINE SIDE OF THE WESTERN
SIDE OF THE CASCADES IT IS JUST
RAIN CLOUDS RAIN BUT A FEW SUN
VIKES TOO.
JUST IN THE LAST FEW MINUTES
WE'VE BEEN SEEING SOME SUN
BREAKS COME THROUGH.
LOOKS LIKE STORMY CLOUDS IN THE
BACKGROUND THERE AND THAT VERY
LIKELY COULD HAPPEN LATER
TODAY.
FORTY FOUR DEGREES RIGHT NOW IN
SEATTLE.
WIND OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST, 10
MILES AN HOUR TEMPERATURE
CURRENTLY A COOL 39 DEGREES FOR
BREMERTON AND SHELTON.
IT'S ALSO DROPPED BACK DOWN TO
39 GREECE FOR FORT'S.
SO THIS IS COOLER AIR THAT'S
MOVING IN AND THAT IS
COMPLETELY DESTABILIZED OUR
ENVIRONMENT BRINGING US THESE
RAIN SHOWERS WSHA LOOKLIVE
HEAVY AT TIMES WE COULD VERY
LIKELY HAVE SOME SMALL HAIL
EMBEDDED IN SOME OF THESE
SHOWERS.
YOU CAN SEE THE HEAVIER SHOWERS
NOW BREAKING OUT A LITTLE BIT
OVER MONTALCINO BUT ALSO
TRACKING THEIR WAY RIGHT UP
OVER KITSAP DOWN OVER EVERET
GETTING AT SOME OF THESE
SHOWERS WORKING IN FROM THE
SOUTHEAST USCO CLEAR OF SOME
THAT ARE UP NEAR HAMILTON.
SO IT'S A BIG TROUGH OF LOW
PRESSURE SITTING OVER US AND
IT'S BEEN GRADUALLY PUSHING ITS
WAY ONSHORE.
BUT YOU CAN SEE IN THE
BACKGROUND THIS LITTLE SPOTTY
CLOUDS OUT OVER THE PACIFIC.
THEY KIND OF LOOK LIKE POPCORN.
THOSE ARE VERY COULLD AYOR
CUMULUS AND THOSE INDICATE TO
US SOME UNSTABLE AIR.
SO WE'LL KEEP THE RAIN SHOWERS
AROUND OVERNIGHT TONIGHT.
BUT WE HAVE THIS AFTERNOON RISK
OF A THUNDERSTORM MAINLY ON THE
COAST PARTS OF SOUTH WASHINGTON
AND POTENTIALLY SOUTH
OF SEATTLE.
SO WE'LL HAVE TO WATCH THAT.
JUST BE READY FOR THE POTENTIAL
OF SOME SMALL HAIL SNOQUALMIE
PASS CERTAINLY GETTING A RAIN
SNOW MIX.
WE'LL EXPECT THAT SNOW LEVEL TO
DROP DOWN TO SNOQUALMIE PASS BY
THIS AFTERNOON AND WE'RE GOING
TO HAVE TOTAL INCHES OF SNOW TO
SIX INCHES OVERALL.
SO WE STILL HAVE A VERY SHOWERY
SOMEWHAT STORMY DAY IN THE
MOUNTAINS AHEAD.
BUT PUGET SOUND REGION RAIN AT
TIMES AND THAT POSSIBLE
THUNDERSTORM LATE IN THE
AFTERNOON, YOUR SUNSET AT FIVE,
13 P.M. AND THAT'S WHEN WE'LL
START TO LOSE THAT RISK OF A
THUNDERSTORM.
TEMPERATURES WILL TOP OUT IN
THE MID 40S FOR SEATTLE AND
WRITTEN FORTY SEVEN BUT ONLY
AROUND FORTY TWO FOR EVERETT
AND FOR BREMERTON TONIGHT THAT
CHANCE OF A THUNDERSTORM
DIMINISHES AND OUR SHOWERS
START TO TAPER OFF IN FACT WE
ARE ACTUALLY GOING TO HAVE A
WEDNESDAY THAT'S GOING TO BE
DRY.
WE'RE GOING TO STILL HAVE A FEW
SPOTTY SHOWERS AROUND EARLY IN
THE MORNING.
BUT OVERALL HEADING TO A PARTLY
SUNNY DRY WEDNESDAY BUT A FEW
RAIN SHOWERS POP UP AGAIN WITH
ANOTHER DISTURBANCE ON THURSDAY
AND THEN WE'LL HAVE JUST A FEW
SHOWERS LEFT OVER FRIDAY.
SATURDAY CURRENTLY LOOKS LIKE A
DRY DAY
