Kelvin waves spotted skipping Washington's coastline

Original: kelvin waves

Meteorologist Cliff Mass says Kelvin waves are skipping along Washington's coast. Kelvin waves are oceanic waves that travel along coastlines and the equator, influencing sea levels and coastal weather patterns. The observation is drawing attention from weather watchers curious about how these waves may affect Pacific Northwest coastal conditions, including water levels and storm behavior along the region's shorelines.

Why now: A well-known local meteorologist's claim about an unusual coastal ocean phenomenon is drawing public interest in the Pacific Northwest.
