FOX 12 FORECAST - WET THROUGH THURSDAY A.M., DRIER BY FRIDAY

Wednesday, January 19th, 3:00 A.M.

Good morning!

Similar to Tuesday, we’re tracking widespread fog & low clouds across our western valleys and the Columbia River Basin. Areas of drizzle can be expected throughout the day, with an uptick in the shower intensity tonight. This is all related to a warm front pushing into the region. Temperatures will gradually climb into the mid to upper 40s this afternoon. By the end of the day, our snow level will be close to 8,000 feet, so there will be no concerns for snow or ice on the Cascade Passes.

A cold front will follow the warm front tonight and surge toward our coastline. This frontal boundary will generate more healthy shower activity overnight, with a thin line of heavier rain arriving to the metro area around 7:00 – 9:00 A.M. Once the cold front pushes through, we should see the showers wind down rather quickly. Temperatures will probably be at their warmest around lunchtime, maxing out in the mid 50s. We’ll quickly drop back into the 40s between the mid afternoon and evening.

High pressure will slowly build in Friday, with increasing sunshine and drier weather on tap. The weather set up is favorable for overnight and morning inversions, which tends to leave us foggy in our inland valleys. Once the fog clears, we should have quite a bit of sunshine each afternoon through the weekend. Similar weather will carry into the middle part of next week.

Have a great Wednesday!
