1:46 p.m.: This update from Cliff Mass:
Nearly everyone will experience gusts to 40-50 mph tonight and some more (coast, near the Sound, NW Washington).
I would not plan any ferry trips tonight and if you need to cross the Sound do it before dinner. I suspect a few hundred thousand folks will lose power in our region, so be ready.
The Seattle office of the National Weather Service says:
THE REMAINING LOWLANDS INCLUDING PUGET SOUND AND THE NORTH INTERIOR WILL HAVE HIGH WIND GUSTS DEVELOPING AFTER 6 P.M. THIS EVENING.
How high? Up to 60 mph here, the weather service says.
