...STRONG THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED OVER THE CASCADES AND FOOTHILLS
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING...
Thunderstorms are expected to develop over the Oregon Cascades
Wednesday afternoon and then spread into the South Washington
Foothills and Cascades later in the afternoon and evening. These
storms will produce frequent lightning and localized heavy
downpours which could exceed one inch in spots. The storms may
also produce large hail and strong gusty winds.
If you are in an area affected by last summer`s fires you should
monitor weather conditions, forecasts and potential warnings
closely. Those planning travel or recreation to the Cascades or
Foothills should be prepared for bad weather and thunderstorm
hazards.
