Here’s an update on the surface smoke forecast for WA from the HRRR smoke model. Expect increasing surface smoke for Western WA through today, with north winds keeping parts of the Sound clean at times, and heavier smoke by Tuesday. #wawx

Not a good situation ongoing across Eastern WA, with multiple large fires burning as of this afternoon. Some of these are or may threaten homes. Red Flag Warnings are in effect due to strong winds and dry conditions today. Stay safe! #wawx

Sure won't feel like June over the next few days...on Saturday, expect highs 10-20º below average, plus localized high mountain snow, a chance of lowland thunderstorms (watch out!), and rain at times. Decent CAPE (instability) exists Sat. aftn. for t-storm potential! #wawx

Just had a good little cell move through SE of Duvall - wind, pouring rain, and hail! Looks like a few other cells near Maple Valley, Monroe, and Snoqualmie. Not a good day for Duvall Days with the Grand Parade scheduled for 10:30am ⛈️ #wawx

As if the thunderstorms and temperature roller coaster wasn't enough...Wednesday will be WINDY! The European model is showing gusts up to 40-45 mph for parts of Western WA, including Seattle, with good ensemble agreement (right). Plus, 45-55 mph gusts in Eastern WA! #wawx

Quite a nice setup for Tuesday seen on the European model tonight. Really nicely placed trough to our south to bring thunderstorms across Western Washington (hits Seattle ~2 PM), plus temps in the upper 70s-mid 80s! Lots of uncertainty, so stay tuned to tomorrow's video! #wawx

Some thunderstorms that may initially fire in western Oregon during Tuesday afternoon as a low pressure center approaches there may get pushed to the north into Western Washington ⛈️ #wawx #wastorms LEARN MORE: emeraldcityweather.com/thunderstorm...
