Pacific Northwest A vigorous lead shortwave trough will steadily amplify today and reach the coastal Pacific Northwest tonight. This will be accompanied by a strong deep-layer wind field, highlighted by 90+ kt winds at 500 mb and 50-80 kt winds within the lowest 1-3 km AGL. This will be as Pacific moisture also steadily increases tonight in tandem with the inland-advancing cold front. Low-topped convection is expected to accompany the front, initially approaching the Washington coast by late evening, and then more interior areas overnight/early Wednesday. Surface-based buoyancy will remain meager, but very strong gradient winds will shift from the southwest to west-northwest as the front passes. Sporadic lightning flashes and strong to severe-caliber wind gusts may accompany the passage of this low-topped convective line, with the most intense low-level winds/convective influences expected to peak during the overnight and early morning hours of Wednesday.
