Yeah... its bad over there.

GFS has been the most consistent (and wrong) with expansion of the mean ridge, but has never really shifted it west whole heartedly. In the end, weak Pacific influence has continued to win out and there’s no real reason that couldn’t continue indefinitely.

Starting to see some better clearing to the SE. That coincides with better cells popping up over/near Tacoma

Dang I thought I was going to get screwed because it went too far west. The core of the lightning was too far east. Still saw lots of flashes and dumped rain. Fun! Don't remember the last time we had a storm like this in JULY.
