Pacific Storm

A strong and vigorous low pressure system is strengthening as we speak out over the Pacific and will continue to get stronger over the next 24 hours. As it does so it will move Northward towards the northern tip of Vancouver Island. This is crucial because although this track creates havoc for the coasts along Oregon and Washington, this is a much less intense storm for inland Washington. High wind warnings are up for the coast for gusts to 70mph along the southern portion of WA coast and gusts to 60mph for the central and northern coastlines. Inland we could see winds from 20-35 and gusts to 50 up north into the San Juans and norther interior  but the Seattle Metro and sound areas will only be dealing with winds gusting to near 40-45mph. Not extremely damaging.
