Looking Ahead:
Showers taper Wednesday, with only a few showers along the coast as a warm front moves through the Pacific Northwest. Mostly cloudy skies with highs in the mid 60s Wednesday, which could tie the record daily high. Skies remain mostly dry through Thursday, before a stronger round of storms starts Friday. More wind, rain and high elevation mountain snow is expected. Right now, we're only watching the Skokomish River for minor flooding by Saturday, but rain will be heavy at times. These systems could bring strong winds to the Puget Sound interior, like last weekend, so stay tuned.
