An example of the localized nature of these winds: Winds are now extending downward from the terrain of the Cascades and Sea-Tac is gusting to 38 mph. 18 miles away at Tacoma-Narrows it's 7 mph. #wawx


The Impact Reposted

A few things to keep in mind. 1) Winds will increase through the evening hours. 2) Strongest winds in this scenario are expected along the coast, near the Cascades, the N. Interior, and near the strait. 3) East/southeast winds can be highly localized and terrain driven. #wawx

Some of the most powerful winds with the strong low pressure offshore are often in a region called the "Sting Jet" (not a Police tribute band). Also known as the "Poisonous Tail" - it's where strong winds form as colder dense air rapidly descends and dries. #wawx
