Record warmth, severe thunderstorms forecast for western Washington this week

March is flipping the script on the old "in like a lion, out like a lamb" adage this year as our weather is about to start roaring as we close down the month. The atmospheric pendulum will be swinging wildly over the top of us in the week to come, and we'll need to be especially weather-aware over the next two days. The first twist will be a surge of warm air coming up the west coast courtesy of a thermal trough in California. This warm, dry feature tends to bring on record temperatures, and it will do so on Tuesday. Highs will reach well into the low 70s around the Central Sound, with afternoon readings closer to 80 near the Oregon state line. Our record at Sea-Tac that day is only 64 degrees, so highs near 70 will easily give us a new mark in the almanac for March 25th. The unusual warmth will lay the groundwork for a thunderstorm outbreak on Wednesday. Thunderstorms require moisture and lift to get going, and we get those smaller cells frequently enough around here. But we don't often get a front seat to SEVERE thunderstorms, which require a quickly changing temperature profile in the atmosphere that includes very warm air at the surface and very cold air up aloft. -------------------------------------------------- For more on the lead story: https://komonews.com/news/local/weste...
