We are going to the top left corner of your map of the United States tonight. I assume your map is like mine, and has Alaska with Hawai’i in their own insets at the bottom of the page.
At 1156AM, PT, Bremerton was reporting a temperature of 57 degrees with overcast skies. Temperatures were kept in check by the cloudy skies. A strong jet curled around Vancouver Island into the Pacific Northwest, leading to regionwide instability. As the jet curls inland, steady bands of rain will continue across the Olympic Peninsula and Puget Sound, particularly through tomorrow.
Surface organization is always murky in the Pacific Northwest, so the best indicator of the future precipitation in the region will be the upper level flow. As the jet moves inland, it will weekend rather than successfully advect eastward. Whatever surface circulation lingers will move a bit inland by Sunday, with light shower activity continuing to spin back into the terrain of the Cascades and Olympic Mountains, resulting in ongoing fog and clouds, with intermittent drizzle for Bremerton.

This will be interesting, as Bremerton doesn’t do a great job of reporting rain in their observations. Let’s see how it all plays out! Check this out: I started writing this last night and grabbed a still of the radar then. Not much changed!
