Continued unsettled through this Thursday.....

Good evening to all.

Getting a look at a few models here, our unsettled and some what cool and showery weather will continue through Thursday. Now we currently have a small break this evening and are now in between systems with temporary clearing across parts of Western WA as the remnants of todays frontal systems continues to head away from us.

For tomorrow though, we should see increasing clouds/rain as the next vigorous system(seen circled in red) on inferred satellite, slides across our region and looks to be over us for during the morning/ early afternoon hours, with rain turning to showers by late in day with highs only being in or around the mid 50`s. And behind this incoming upper level piece of energy is a short wave trough with 500mb temps of -30 to -32c and thicknesses of 534meters that slides across our area for during the day Thurs. And like tomorrow, we should see plenty of showers around with high temps being pretty much similar to Wed with highs around or in the mid 50`s. And with a cold, yet small short wave/ vort lobe moving through, there could be that chance of an isolated thunder shower with any sun breaks we get on Thurs, if we do get any at all. But with that cold trough moving in, this means the airmass aloft will and or should be slight unstable. So showers will probably be most numorus when the short wave trough arrives.

Now for the weekend.....well starting Fri, highs look to be a little warmer and in the mid to maybe upper 50`s with improving conditions as a 1032mb ridge of high pressure builds toward our coast. So should see more in the way sun for the later part of Friday. For the weekend, that is looking pretty nice, at least so far in the models, as our ridge looks to be with us for both days with partly to mostly sunny skies with highs in the low-mid 60`s both Sat and Sun. So over all, looks like a pretty good weekend in the making!
