Really, really lovely cumulonimbus action tonight! I just happened to have my drone in the car and got some solid shots of DT Seattle/Lake Washington/Mercer Island/Bellevue looking north from Skyway.

NBM is quite an interesting product! Their weighting algorithm is moderately complex and dynamic, though does has some drawbacks as we saw yesterday. For those who don't know, NBM is an attempt by NOAA to create a super probabilistic forecast model that ingests output from all the models above and outputs forecast guidance for local offices that help them to gauge the relative odds of particular weather outcomes.

Yesterday was a very cool, cloudy late May day with the official H/L of 63/54 there was no rainfall and no sunshine. The peak wind gust was 33 MPH out of the W. For today the average H/L is 74/53 the record high of 94 was set in 2018 and the record low of 33 was set in 1894 and 1949. The most rainfall of 1.86” was in 1984. Last year the H/L was 80/49.
The overnight low here in MBY was 54 I had 0.03” of rainfall. At the current time it is 55 with light rain falling.
74*. Humidity 83%
These storms seem to keep tracking over the same territory.
I’ll receive rain today but the fireworks will miss me. Everything at a standstill under these.
Nice weather here today and tomorrow, rain chances return this weekend. It will be nice to have thunderstorms around this weekend without the severe weather. The LRC suggests another widespread severe weather outbreak June 8th - 10th.
