Coastal Flood Advisory
-Coastal Hazard Message National Weather Service Seattle WA 818 PM PST Tue Dec 16 2025 Port Townsend Area-Island County- 818 PM PST Tue Dec 16 2025 ...COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 1 AM TO 7 AM PST WEDNESDAY... * WHAT...Minor coastal flooding expected. Inundation of 2 to 3 feet above ground level is possible along shorelines and low- lying coastal areas. * WHERE...Port Townsend Area and Island County zones. * WHEN...From 1 AM to 7 AM PST Wednesday. * IMPACTS...Minor coastal flooding due to tidal overflow is expected around high tide. This may lead to flooding of parking lots, parks, and roads, with only isolated road closures expected. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Coastal flooding will occur in the hours around the morning high tide. A strong push of northwest winds down the Strait of Juan de Fuca will push water into the area, aligning with the time of high tide. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property. Inundation above ground level refers to the height above the Mean Higher High Water (MHHW) level. &&

Significant rainfall over the past week has increased soil moisture to high levels across western Washington. Additional rainfall of 1 to 2 inches is expected through the rest of today. This amount of rain will continue to put extra pressure on soil instability, leading to an increased threat of landslides and debris flows, especially from recent burned areas, with this new ranfall acting as a trigger. Numerous landslides have already occurred in Whatcom, Skagit, King Counties and others. More landslides are possible. Areas most susceptible to landslides debris flows under these conditions are steep coastal bluffs, other steep hillsides or road cuts, and recent burned areas. A diminishing threat of landslides and debris flows will continue for several days after the rain ends.

Severe Storm Risk
-There is a Marginal Severe Storm Risk for your location. Continue reading for today's outlook from the National Weather Service's Storm Prediction Center. -------------------- National Severe Storm Outlook THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST SUMMARY Sporadic severe gusts may accompany low-topped convection across parts of the Pacific Northwest tonight into early Wednesday morning. Pacific Northwest A vigorous shortwave trough will reach coastal WA by late tonight and spread inland through 12Z Wednesday. This trough will be accompanied by an intense tropospheric wind field, characterized by 70-90 kts at 700 mb, that will spread across WA and OR during 06-12Z. A surface cyclone will move onshore in BC and occlude, as downstream lee cyclogenesis occurs over southern AB. Low-topped convection is expected to increase along the trailing cold front attendant to the occluded cyclone, initially reaching coastal WA towards 06Z. Surface-based buoyancy will be scant along the front, but sporadic lightning flashes and occasional strong to severe-caliber wind gusts may accompany the passage of this low-topped convective line. Low-topped convection should also increase ahead of this line overnight, as strong large-scale ascent coincides with peak low to mid-level flow. With minimal instability, low confidence exists in the degree of convective enhancement beyond the gradient winds. Thus, the level 1-MRGL risk has been maintained with no changes.
