Yeah there looked like an outside shot at a ridge bridge signal at the end. Kicking the regular season off with a bang.

Looking back on this year so far it is astounding how difficult it was to break the cool / wet pattern early in the year, and the warm/dry pattern we have recently been in.  Let's hope a cold pattern that is so tenacious sets in this season.

Hopefully the worst and last of it.  Hazardous air alerts are popping up all around the Puget Sound. The dark purple is hazardous air.  The purple is very unhealthy air.  The red is unhealthy air.

The winds haven't kicked in as much as models had predicted yet for this time in the night.  But there is some onshore gradients popping up.  At around 3am, southward winds over the waters of the Puget Sound are predicted to be between 4-5mph around Everett, 5-7mph around Seattle, and and 4-2mph from Tacoma to Olympia.  This is low level wind to help push smoke away. The next front is coming!

Also some nice cool temperatures tonight. :)

Imagine the mean ridge position at ~140-160 W for the next 3 months.

I never dreamed the air quality would get to such extreme levels.  Thank goodness the pattern is changing.  That beyond purple color is actually considered an air pollution emergency.

For Oregon, hazardous readings are popping up around the Portland metro area too... but look at this bit of positive.  Cleaner air is coming.  Astoria and Seaside on the map have been moderate air all day and just recently have been listed as good.  This new front is coming from the NW and it's starting to influence NW Oregon.

Good night, and thanks for all of the updates. Yep we will all cheer once the onshore flow increases blowing the smoke and haze away.

I really like the changes in the trough this weekend.  We get in northerly flow on the back side which gives us a window for some pretty chilly temps.  Should be a crisp weekend.

Agreed, I think we could see low temps trend a bit cooler. Nice, clean, crisp Fall nights and mornings.

As Meaty mentioned the long range GFS is classic Nina. Gulf of Alaska ridge develops again and again ~140 W to 155 W with persistent anchor low resulting in multiple troughs in NWLY flow.

I hope the ridge sets up far enough offshore so that not only the PNW gets good storms, but California also benefits as well. We need drought relief down here just as much as you all do at this time!
