Flood Watch Issued for The Western Washington and Oregon Metro Zones Sunday through Tuesday



National Weather Force has issued a Flood Watch effective Sunday April 9th through Tuesday April 11th with a series of storm fronts moving through the Pacific Northwest.  The jet stream has moved north, pretty much on track for this time of year.  Heavy rainfall will hit Sunday through Tuesday.

Areas along the Washington and Oregon Coastal and Foothill Zones below the snow-levels will see well over 3+” of rainfall with the combined passage of the frontal zones.  Areas along I-5 from Seattle through Portland, and further south through Salem and Eugene will see 2+ inches of rainfall.

THUNDERSTORMS:  Tuesday is when the convective part of the system comes in.  Upper-level divergence (lift) will be strong enough to warrant the chance of thunderstorms in the watch areas.  Another weak front will hit on Thursday, but then after that the area will dry out until the next hit on or around April 17th.
