IN
IN THAT
IN THAT COMMUNITY WERE INVOLVED IN THE SEARCH. THE GIRL'S MOM SAYS SHE IS
OBVIOUSLY GRATEFUL FOR
EVERYONE'S SUPPORT.
>> AND OF COURSE IT'S CHRISTMAS
EVE AND SANTA IS MAKING HIS WAY
AROUND THE WORLD.
A LOOK HERE AT THE NORAD SANTA
TRACKER.
AND RIGHT NOW HE IS JUST
SECONDS AWAY TO GETTING TO THAT
TALL BRAZIL.
AND SO I WANT TO WISH MY FELLOW
CO-ANCHOR STEVE FILLY'S METHOW
BUDDY GUY ALTHOUGH I SAY COMING
BACK FIND THE OIL CLOSET THAT.
>> SO THAT MEANS THAT HE IS
ALMOST THERE.
AND THIS IS REALLY SIGNIFICANT
BECAUSE THE TALL ACTUALLY MEANS
CHRISTMAS.
YES.
CHRISTMAS. YES. SO IT'S VERY APPROPRIATE.
SO FOR PEOPLE WHO DON'T KNOW
JESSICA IS A BRAZILIAN I SENT
MY WIFE THIS FROM BRAZIL AND MY
WIFE IS FROM CFA WHICH IS A BIG
CITY PRETTY CLOSE TO THE TALL.
AND WE'D BEEN THERE BEFORE.
IT'S AN AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL
CITY AND I LOVE THAT HE'S ABOUT
TO BE THERE ON THE TALL WHICH
IS CHRISTMAS IN PORTUGUESE.
>> I ALWAYS GOT BRAZIL NUTS IN
MY STOCKING GROWING UP.
SO THAT COUNTS, RIGHT?
SO YOU CAN JOIN THE GROUP AND
WE CAN WISH EVERYONE A MERRY
CHRISTMAS.
>> GIVE US ALL WATCHING SANTA
CLAUS.
AND I DON'T SEE ANY WHETHER
THAT'S GOING TO CAUSE ANY
SIGNIFICANT PROBLEMS WITH SANTA
CLAUS GETTING HERE OVERNIGHT
TONIGHT.
USUALLY THERE'S LITTLE THINGS
WILL HICCUPS HERE AND THERE.
>> BUT OVERALL THE PACIFIC
NORTHWEST IS WELCOMING SANTA
WITH A COOL DOWN
OF TEMPERATURES SO HE'LL BE
NICE AND COMFORTABLE.
THOSE TEMPERATURES IN SOME
SPOTS ARE GOING TO BE BACK NEAR
FREEZING.
BUT MOST OF US HERE IN WESTERN
WASHINGTON WILL BE ABOVE THE
FREEZING MARK TONIGHT THANKS TO
THE CLOUD COVER THAT'S COME IN.
YOU CAN KIND OF SEE THAT HERE
IN THE SKY FROM EVERETT PAINE
FIELD GOING INTO THE WATERFRONT
ANDEATTLE YOU COULD SEE THE
MAP.
>> YOU SEE MOUNT RAINIER BACK
THERE.
IT'S A NICE LITTLE SILHOUETTE
NOW THE CLOUDS HAVE BEEN MOVING
IN AS WE EXPECTED AHEAD OF A
STRONG DISTURBANCE THAT'S
GETTING STRETCHED OUT AND
WEAKENED BEFORE IT EVEN ARRIVES
HERE.
>> BUT WE'LL HAVE SOME RAINFALL
COMING AND NOT SNOW BUT JUST
RAIN HERE IN THE LOWLAND AREAS
TOMORROW.
THIRTY NINE DEGREES RIGHT NOW
IN SEATTLE CALLED WIND.
NOW IF COLD WIND IS ONCE AGAIN
WITH US, THE TEMPERATURES
CHILL.
>> YOU MAY BE THINKING OKAY,
ARE WE GOING TO END UP WITH
MORE FOG AGAIN MAYBE IN SOME
SPOTS BUT IT'S MORE LIKELY THAT
WE'RE GOING TO KEEP THE CLOUD
COVER UP A LITTLE BIT BECAUSE
THE WINDS ARE CALL NOW BUT THEY
SHOULD INCREASE A LITTLE BIT AS
WE GET INTO THE MORNING HOURS.
SO 42 DEGREES IN SEATTLE
CURRENTLY.
BUT LOOK HOW CHILLY IT IS IN
SHELTON, 34 DEGREES, 36 IN
OLYMPIA.
SOME OF THE SPOTS THAT HAD THE
ICY FREEZING FOG WHEN IS CALM
FOR MOST OF US AND IF IT'S NOT
CALLED THIS IS A FAIRLY LIGHT
SAY FIVE OR SIX MILE PER HOUR
WIND OUT OF THE SOUTHEAST AS
THIS WEATHER SYSTEM APPROACHES
TONIGHT.
>> WE WILL BE MOSTLY CLOUDY.
THAT WILL HELP MOST OF THE STAY
RIGHT ABOVE THE FREEZING MARK.
WIND WILL BE OUT OF THE
SOUTHEAST AND IT'LL BE BACK 10
MILES AN HOUR AT MOST.
SO NOT SUPER STRONG BUT IT
KEEPS THINGS MIXED UP A BIT TO
ONCE AGAIN PREVENT MOST OF US
FROM GOING TOO FAR TO THE
FREEZING MARK.
>> NOW THAT SHOULD SAY 36 THOSE
ARE THAT OVERNIGHT LOW MOUTH IS
NOT QUITE CORRECT.
SO GET THAT FIXED FOR YOU.
OTHERWISE WE HAVE THE SATELLITE
TO SHOW YOU WHERE LOW PRESSURE
IS MOVING UP TOWARDS BRITISH
COLUMBIA.
AS IT DOES SO IT WILL
EVENTUALLY BRING RAIN TO THE
COAST BY MORNING AND THE AREAS
OF RAIN WILL DEVELOP IN SEATTLE
FOR THE MORNING HOURS.
>> BUT MOST OF OUR RAIN IS
EXPECTED TO COME AFTER 10:00
A.M. WATCH THIS.
HERE IT COMES.
WE'RE GOING GET A GOOD HIT
OF RAIN THROUGH THE AFTERNOON
TOMORROW AND THEN IT BREAKS THE
SHOWERS TOMORROW NIGHT.
SO MOST OF US WILL GET THAT
RAIN BUT AGAIN LATER IN THE
AFTERNOON.
>> SNOQUALMIE PASS GOOD TRAVEL
CONDITIONS RIGHT NOW.
RAIN AND SNOW WILL INCREASE IN
THE AFTERNOON WITH THE SNOW
LEVEL.
THIRTY FIVE HUNDRED FEET.
WE'RE GOING TO GET TWO TO SEVEN
INCHES.
NEW SNOW.
THERE'S YOUR WHITE CHRISTMAS IN
THE MOUNTAINS NOW FOR THE
LOWLANDS ARE RAIN INCREASES IN
THE AFTERNOON A HIGH OF FORTY
FIVE FOR SEATTLE AND WE WILL
HAVE INCREASING RAIN AS WE GET
INTO OUR CHRISTMAS DAY.
NOW ON SATURDAY WIND IN THE
MORNING THIS IS GOING TO BE A
BLUSTERY SHOT OF WIND VERY
EARLY SATURDAY MORNING AND THEN
MOSTLY SCATTERED RAIN SHOWERS
FOR US.
>> THEN THINGS GET A LITTLE
QUIETER ON SUNDAY PARTLY SUNNY
SKIES BREAKING OUT AND ANOTHER
ROUND OF FREEZING FOG COMES ON
MONDAY.
SO TIMING OUT THESE STORM
SYSTEMS, THEY APPEAR TO
