Outflow picking up in Mission. Temperature just dived about a degree in the last 30 minutes. Currently 7.6C with some light showers.

Edit: low of 6.5C at 10:17 am.

As this upper low tracks south off the Oregon coast and down to
California, expect to see an increase in offshore flow and
Fraser outflow setting up across western Whatcom County and
across the San Juan Islands with gusts up to 40-45 mph. Breezy
northerly winds across other portions of the interior may follow
early Monday morning, but only topping out closer to 25 mph in
these other locations. This disturbance pushing away from the
area will also bring a drier trend and decreasing cloud cover.
This will lead to rather cool nights, especially as the air mass
dries cools efficiently, with some potential for frost starting
Tuesday morning. 12

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...As mentioned
above, There's potential for frost in some of the outlying,
sheltered location both Tuesday and Wednesday mornings, with
even around a 15% chance for some of the cool spots south of
Olympia through Centralia and west toward Aberdeen approaching
the freezing mark for an hour or three on Wednesday morning.
Daytime highs will reach into the lower 60s with mostly sunny
skies through the midweek period. Ensemble guidance then begins
to split late in the week with the potential for at least a weak
system to get close to the area by late Thursday. A resumption
of typical fall weather then follows with stronger frontal
systems favored to arrive Friday through the weekend. 12

Today is the 63rd anniversary of Typhoon Freda in 1962, the most intense and destructive storm in west coast history. Here is the Wikipedia link - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbus_ ... rm_of_1962

I already had strong interest in weather but this storm kindled a life long obsession with it! I visited the Victoria weather office shortly after the storm and remember seeing the Dines pressure tube anemometer tracing of the peak gust to 90 mph, 145 km/h) on the wax surface of the chart. Do any of you 'old timers' have any recollections of the storm?
