Olympia was officially 10 degrees above normal yesterday.

The coldest day they have had this month was 7 degrees below normal.

Alot of high/middle level clouds around today. If we can get rid of them, temperatures will have no problem racing into the 70s.

As for this weekend, I still say not much will happen. I honestly think the GFS is crazy...it just can't handle this pattern. I say some areas of Western Washington will see NO rain/thunderstorm action. The likeliest place will be the southwest interior because of their proximity to the upper level low. Tomorrow should be another warm day...temperatures in the upper 60s, lower 70s. Sunday may be a little cooler with some marine air.

Next week is shaping up to be similar to this week...maybe a little cooler, but less high/middle level clouds.

Off to school.

Monday does not look to be cool or even "near normal". This overall warm pattern should continue for another week.

Should be sunny and very warm...

Hi Guys!!

And good morning all! What a really nice morning it is outside and mostly sunny skies except for a few high clouds at the current time of 8:43a.m. My current temp is 53 with DP at 52 and humidity 93%. My low this morning was 47.

Here`s some really neat cirrus clouds I took just a little bit ago from out in our back yard. Enjoy!

Looking at the latest models this morning....GFS, NAM, NGM, ETA....they all show some pretty good precip over our area for Sunday afternoon/evening. Saturday reamains mostly dry. And some thunder storms still looks good as lifted indices will be near -4! Lapse rate will probably end up being pretty steep as we`ll have a moist and very unstable airmass...not to mention southerly winds at the mid levels. Sunday should also be fairly mild as Seattle MOS has a high of 57, though I think places that are more inland could be seeing mid 60`s.
So weather should be interesting for the weekend.

Now up to 65 degrees and still climbing! 8-)

I`m going outside...be back later!

TT-SEA · #4929 Postby **TT-SEA** » Fri Apr 22, 2005 12:52 pm

Currently 71 degrees and sunny at my house.

Not too bad considering its still before 11 a.m.

We could be pushing 80 degrees here by afternoon.

But I am sure I will get no credit.

While it was cold and rainy last week I said this would happen. But I guess I am completely off-base!!

TT-SEA · #4931 Postby **TT-SEA** » Fri Apr 22, 2005 12:57 pm

73 degrees here now.

Up 2 degrees in 5 minutes.

TT-SEA · #4932 Postby **TT-SEA** » Fri Apr 22, 2005 1:16 pm

So far... Sea-Tac is 7 degrees above normal for the day. This will rise some more this afternoon.

As of 11 a.m... temperature of 65 after a low of 51.

The coldest day of the month at Sea-Tac was 7 degrees below normal. Statistically that day has been negated.

TT-SEA · #4933 Postby **TT-SEA** » Fri Apr 22, 2005 1:41 pm

77 degrees here now.

Just 3 degrees shy of 80 and its not even noon. Although... I assume Brennan wil say that we are not "pushing 80 degrees" until we get to 79.9 degrees!!

So... I will just call this a warm day for April.

TT-SEA · #4934 Postby **TT-SEA** » Fri Apr 22, 2005 1:51 pm

79.1 degrees here now.

I know... still not pushing 80.

TT-SEA · #4935 Postby **TT-SEA** » Fri Apr 22, 2005 1:56 pm

Couple of weather stations in Bellvue and Sammamish between 75-77 degrees.

TT-SEA · #4936 Postby **TT-SEA** » Fri Apr 22, 2005 2:18 pm

Numerous weather stations in Bellevue either side of 77 degrees

Weather station in Redmond at 78.3 degrees

Weather station in Maple Valley at 76 degrees

Weather station in Sammamish at 77 degrees.

Some widespread upper 70's on the Eastside this early afternoon.

O.K... my thermometer deep in the shade with no ambient light has reached 80.2 degrees.

It actually feels hot outside.

I have to go to a client's office for a couple hours so I will be not be on here posting to myself anymore!!

TT-SEA · #4938 Postby **TT-SEA** » Fri Apr 22, 2005 2:26 pm

One last update... we have dropped to 79 degrees now. I am sure it will go back up again soon though.

TT you never said we would push 80 today... You said we could be pusing 80 by sunday buddy. And shortly after your 80 degree prediction you changed it to upper 60's... Your most previous prediction did not say things would push 80. YOU SAID SUNDAY... NOT TODAY... TOday is VERY WARM though... very nice outside

Guest · #4940 Postby **Guest** » Fri Apr 22, 2005 3:14 pm

ANd as snowwizzard and i said, today and tomorrow will be the only real warm days... So why should you get any more credit than us? You never said anything about 80 degrees today... So stop trying to rub in NOTHING because you are just making yourself feel good about yourself.
