    Westerly flow will persist aloft today as the current
    system exits the area to the east. Flow will then become more
    west-southwesterly again tonight ahead of the next incoming system
    slated to move across the Western Washington late tonight into
    Monday. Radar this morning shows the current frontal system
    gradually making its way into the Cascades, with the heaviest
    precipitation moving east across the foothills and mountains at
    this hour. Showers have started to make their way across the
    Olympic Peninsula in the wake of the system and are expected to
    continue across Western Washington throughout the day as a
    shortwave traverses the region. Current conditions at area
    terminals have primarily rebounded to VFR in the wake of the
    heaviest precipitation associated with the front. However, expect
    MVFR conditions to redevelop at most area terminals this morning
    with additional showers expected across the region. Showers will
    taper this afternoon, likely yielding another rebound to VFR
    conditions. The next round of rain will approach from the south
    tonight and overnight into Monday, bringing another round of
    reduced visibilities and ceilings. Winds will become more
    southerly and gradually pick up, becoming gusty at times late
    tonight and into the overnight period.
    
    KSEA...Current conditions VFR. Expect MVFR conditions to redevelop

    gradually taper by afternoon for a likely return to VFR
    conditions. Southeasterly winds will become more southerly and
    persist at 8-12 knots. 14
