I swore I wouldn’t, but I find myself obessively checking the National Weather Service’s Zone Forecast for Seattle. My favorite part is the Forecast discussion, where-in some climatoligist writes little notes about his/her forecast process. Lately the notes have been things like “Dull forecast…don’t anticipate updating.”

Today, however, I got a little jolt from the forecast discussion:

…FRI THROUGH SUN…MAY POSE A PROBLEM. MODEL SOLUTIONS COMING AROUND TO A MORE WET AND COOLER SOLUTION THAN HAS BEEN ADVERTISED UP TIL NOW. GFS90 AND GFSLR INDICATE ANOTHER SYSTEM ROLLING ONSHORE FRI NIGHT WITH TROF CLOSE ENOUGH TO AFFECT THE WEATHER INTO THE WEEKEND …CONFIDENCE IN A DRY WEEKEND IS DROPPING … IF INTERESTED IN OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES NEXT WEEKEND…STAY TUNED TO LATER FORECASTS.

…keep breathing…keep breathing…
