Forecast

The barometric pressure in Ocean Shores, Washington is influenced by its coastal location. The pressure often fluctuates due to the proximity to the Pacific Ocean. This fluctuation is caused by the constant movement of air masses over the ocean. Changes in pressure indicate shifts in the weather patterns.

Ocean Shores is surrounded by the Olympic Peninsula to the east and the Pacific Ocean to the west. The peninsula's mountains create an orographic effect, blocking and redirecting air masses. This forces moist air to rise, cool, and condense, resulting in precipitation. The coastal plain, where Ocean Shores is located, receives the resulting weather patterns.
