   SEATTLE — Get ready for wet and windy weather across parts of western   
   Washington. Another round of rain arrived in the south Sound Monday   
   morning and moved north, arriving in Everett and the Whidbey Island areas   
   Monday afternoon. It will remain wet and windy through the overnight hours   
   and into Tuesday morning, with some areas forecast to get an additional   
   inch or two of rain.   
      
   The weather-maker passing over the region is a strong low-pressure area,   
   meaning it's going to get very windy. The National Weather Service said   
   strong winds with gusts between 50-60 were possible in the Seattle area   
   Monday night into early Tuesday morning, but the strongest wind gusts were   
   expected along the Pacific Coast.   
      
   The weather service said “power outages and tree damage will be possible”   
   with the storm. Lightning and thunder were seen and heard at Seattle   
   Center around 6:15 p.m. Monday. Shortly after, Seattle City Light reported   
   more than 5,680 customers were without power, most of which were around   
   the Fremont area.

   Widespread power outages are expected from the damaging winds blowing down   
   trees and power lines, according to the NWS.   
      
   There is also a high surf advisory for the north and central coast zones   
   with large breaking waves of 15 to 25 feet expected.

   showers that taper through the day.   
      
   The wind will quiet down in the afternoon and evening.   
      
   Wednesday morning will feel calmer and colder, and temperatures could rise
