Time and Day: 1100
Saturday
The Snapshot: Temperatures will rise into the 40’s today with sunny conditions continuing
through the weekend. Change is on the
way.
The Science: The high pressure is expected to weaken and shift
east during the next 24hrs. Cold arctic
air dropping into the center of the country will also extend far enough west
for a cooler temperature profile for the Cascades.
4-7day Long Range: A westerly flow pattern
takes shape for a more typical winter weather pattern next week. The first moisture should reach the mountains
on Tuesday with another system expected a few days later. Freezing levels, with east flow influence,
should be on our favor for snow. Cooler
NW flow develops during the ladder part of the week. These systems aren’t packing much energy so
significant snow is unlikely, but it is a change for the better.
