I look at gfs metrostar website and they will be charging a fee to use it lame.

Probably. Did not get as much wind as most people though my lights flickered a few times.

Hear it oddly now

sustained winds of 43 and gusts to 53 it claims on noaa for bothell did not feel it!

Only flickered once here

Not much here either

not much to see one gust made the lights blink that is it.

makes sense thanks! i have predicted 40-45 tonight in gusts maybe im spot on

that is gusts or sustained speed?

30 to 35 knots equals what MPH tryig to learn

really i still see 30 to 35 for central sound my area!

scott from komo says the buoy off timock says 973mb

so its going to get windy!

PORTABLE GENERATORS SHOULD ONLY BE USED OUTDOORS IN A DRY AND WELL VENTILATED AREA. DO NOT USE A BARBECUE GRILL TO HEAT YOUR HOME AS IT CAN LEAD TO CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING AND/OR A FIRE.

I think over time it evens out. However sometimes it may take 30 years

One day someone has to teach me fast how to read these things like WRF somehow I see still 40-45 gusts im probably wrong and too conservative.

I really hope so. So far this year got a trace of snow on the grass none on cement. For some reason my location just has a hard time getttng snow to stick. When most people get an inch or two I get a trace or a little more.

ya never know what mother nature has in store. perhaps that would be a precursor to an ice age?

That is impossible that virtually means the whole western hemisphere is colder than normal! where did el nino go?

"MOST LIKELY THE HIGH WINDS WILL OCCUR AS GUSTS TO ABOUT 60 OR 65 MPH BASED ON THE 925 MB FLOW PEAKING AROUND 50-55 KT WHICH MAY SURFACE AT TIMES GIVEN THE UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE. GIVEN THE SATURATED SOILS ACROSS THE REGION...DOWNED TREES ARE LIKELY ALONG WITH POWER OUTAGES." I personally see 40 to 45 gusts in Seattle.

some how i do not buy that. the new updated warning states that we central sound will start gettings winds around 6pm

AS THE LOW LIFTS NWD IT WILL IMPACT WRN OREGON WITH HIGH WINDS AND EVENTUALLY MOVE NWD JUST OFF THE S WA COAST LATE THIS AFTERNOON. THE STRONGEST WIND WILL BE TO THE S OF THE LOW SO THE EVENING TIMING FOR ONSET OF WINDS ACROSS SW WA LOOKS GOOD. HIGH WINDS ON THE COAST APPEAR TO BE A GIVEN WITH GUSTS TO 75 MPH...POSSIBLY HIGHER. A WARNING WAS ALREADY ISSUED FOR THE COAST EARLIER THIS MORNING. THE WRF-GFS AND HIGH RES RAPID REFRESH MODEL NOW ONLY GRADUALLY FILL THE LOW TO AROUND 978-980 MB AS IT TRACKS TO NEAR TATOOSH BY 06Z TONIGHT (10PM). THE CENTRAL PRESSURE APPEARS TO BE DEEP ENOUGH AND ALSO COMBINED WITH A MESO LOW ON THE NE SIDE OF THE OLYMPICS TO GIVE A PERIOD OF BORDERLINE HIGH WINDS TO THE INTERIOR INCLUDING PUGET SOUND. MOST LIKELY THE HIGH WINDS WILL OCCUR AS GUSTS TO ABOUT 60 OR 65 MPH BASED ON THE 925 MB FLOW PEAKING AROUND 50-55 KT WHICH MAY SURFACE AT TIMES GIVEN THE UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE. GIVEN THE SATURATED SOILS ACROSS THE REGION...DOWNED TREES ARE LIKELY ALONG WITH POWER OUTAGES.

if that were to happen would it be 60 plus?

I must be dumb or cant read but i though green meant 30 o 35?

my power just almost went out with a gust of winds! just now. i foresee and predict 30 to 40 mph winds around my area maybe close to 50 at best. 65 would be a hell of a long shot. Still stormy and cause damage
