I think I’ve already expressed my love for tumultuous weather, but now even I want a break! I think there’s only so much severity one weatherman can take before longing for a nice, dry, mild streak.
Today featured an Olympic Rain Shadow for the main Central/North Kitsap areas while south and west Kitsap got into the rain–not heavy rain, but rain nonetheless.
Than rain shadow is expanding, but showers are still moving through so expect some light rain this evening extending through tomorrow. The main story will be the cloud cover, however, so if you’re thinking tomorrow’s forecast sounds similar to what we went through today…you are right. Highs will be in the mid 40s.
Now…drum roll please!
DAY 1 OF MILD RIDGE: Some sprinkles could fall on Monday, but right now it looks mainly dry and cloudy in the morning breaking out to partly sunny skies in the afternoon. Highs will be in the upper 40s. The temperatures are climbing! The skies are clearing!
DAY 2 OF MILD RIDGE: Partial sunshine after morning fog with highs in the upper 40s and lower 50s is looking likely. It’s getting warmer!
DAY 3 of MILD RIDGE: After some morning fog, skies will clear and reveal partly to even mostly sunny skies and highs look to soar solidly into the 50s!
DAYS 4 THROUGH 6 OF MILD RIDGE: Repeat Day 3.
So it appears it’s time to bring out the sunglasses, but visits to the beach or local pool may have to wait 🙂
Enjoy!
P.S. The mountains will also be sitting under a mild ridge with highs in the upper 30s/low 40s. It will be a sad pattern for skiers to behold, but it won’t do NEARLY as much damage as a Pineapple Express pattern, that’s for sure!
