...WETTER AND COOLER WEATHER THIS WEEKEND...
Widespread rain is on the way for this weekend, with rain moving
onto the South Washington and North Oregon Coast Friday morning.
Rain will spread into the Willamette Valley Friday afternoon. Rain
will continue on and off through Sunday, tapering off Monday.
Expect most of the rain to fall Friday night into Saturday, when
amounts of around 0.5 inch are forecast.
Snow levels will also be falling lower than they have been in a
while, dropping down to around pass levels Saturday night into
Sunday morning. While pavement temperatures will prohibit snow
from sticking at the passes, people up in the mountains camping
or hiking may encounter an inch or two of snow if up above 4500
feet overnight Saturday night into Sunday morning. Snow levels
will be lifting back up above the passes Sunday.
Daytime high temperatures will also be much cooler than normal,
with highs only in the low 60s for most of the area near sea level.
