.AVIATION...Southerly flow aloft over Western Washington today, 
with an upper level low offshore, will become light and variable 
tonight as the low moves over the area. The air mass is moist and 
stable but will become slightly unstable tonight. At the surface 
light northerly flow is forecast today, becoming moderately onshore 
tonight. 

Some fog and low stratus developed overnight, giving local IFR 
ceilings and visibilities, but the trend today will be toward 
widespread MVFR ceilings later this morning, and even some VFR in 
the afternoon. Showers and MVFR ceilings will return after 00Z.

KSEA...Discussion above applies. MVFR ceilings around 1k ft will 
improve to 2-3k ft later this morning, with VFR possible in the 
afternoon. Another batch of rain or showers will arrive around 00Z 
from the south, and MVFR ceilings will return after that. Northerly 
gradient through Puget Sound this morning will give north winds 
rising to 8-12 kt after 18Z. Gradient abruptly flips back to 
southerly after 06Z tonight for southerly wind 6-12 kt. CHB

will subside tonight. The flow will e light northerly today as a 
weak cold front moves east into Oregon. Onshore flow will resume 
tonight as this system moves farther inland. Onshore flow will 
increase on Monday. A stronger onshore push Monday night could bring 
westerly gales to the Strait of Juan de Fuca. High pressure will 
develop over the area Wednesday, giving lighter winds. CHB
