West Seattle Weather Watch update: Newest forecast

All’s quiet here as of 4 am but the latest “forecast discussion” came out less than half an hour ago and includes:

PRECIP SHOULD SOON DEVELOP ALONG THE COAST AND SPREAD INTO THE INTERIOR AROUND OR JUST AFTER SUNRISE. THE AIR MASS IS SUFFICIENTLY COLD RIGHT NOW TO SUPPORT SNOW OVER NEARLY ALL OF WRN WA …

4 am temp at both Sea-Tac and Boeing Field, nearest “official” major weather stations, was 32 degrees. If you need to check traffic cameras, the ones of relevance to West Seattle are on the WSB Traffic page; the citywide system is here; the WSDOT cams page for the entire region is here.

    I drove across the bridge at 5:10 and you could see that de-icer had already been laid down on it. I wasn’t entirely sure if the occasional sheen was de-icer or ice but I made it across with absolutely no problems whatsoever so I think it was just the de-icer.

    Snowflakes gently floating down here next to Fauntleroy Park… so deceptively pretty. :)

    Lots of very small snowflakes coming down near Riverview Park.

    St. Mass is advising people to get to work sooner rather than later, and is sounding a note of concern over the transition to rain…

    I hope there is not an encore presentation of the Metro Mystery Bus Challenge for the commute home…(St. Mass is Cliff Mass, at http://cliffmass.blogspot.com/)
