This morning starts off relatively dry short for the Basin. Our main system weakens and retreats for today which will allow for calmer conditions. The calm doesn't last long as another system will bring heavy rain and gusty winds for Friday starting late tonight.

Good Morning. Today, we are under the direct control of yet another system to our Northwest. With that, the day ahead will start off with constant rainfall. After a several hour break in the mid morning, the rainfall will return as showers for the rest of the day. The second most prominent condition will be the gusty winds that build starting in the mid morning. Expect gusts f over 40 MPH occasionally. For the weekend ahead, both days will be showery and wet with temps dropping back into the low 50's at max.

Good Morning. Early observations show a low pressure circulation passing directly overhead as it tracks East. With this, the day will be wet in the morning, with decreasing showers into the afternoon, and drying into the evening. This morning, we have a mixture of showers and patchy fog. As the sun rises, little change will come to the weather. Over the Mountains, a small amount of snow remains to fall for the morning, but like the rest of the region, activity will begin decreasing rapidly after the mid morning. Temps are down today with a high of just 50 degrees wide spread. As the week moves on from today, high pressure becomes dominant and conditions stay dry while cooling even more.

Today's high pressure is making for a freezing and foggy morning. Expect the clouds to clear starting in the mid morning and sunshine by the afternoon. Calm winds will make for a fairly relaxing day despite falling temps.

Good Afternoon. Today's weather is looking similar to yesterday with high pressure forcing an inversion layer over the Valley while the Coast and Foothills see a mostly sunny day. The only real difference is the clearing in the low clouds over the Valley. The additional direct sunlight will allow for a slightly higher high temp for that area today. Models and Satellite imagery both point to a short wave disturbance riding along our current ridge and breaking the inversion for tomorrow morning. We will still see nearly freezing temps for tomorrow morning, but fog and low clouds will not stick around over the Valley. If the disturbance holds some energy through tonight, we could see slight chances for showers along the Coast and in the Northern Valley for Thursday morning. All signs still point towards a total shift in the upper atmosphere starting Friday evening which will bring elevated rainfall chances to the weekend.

Good afternoon. After the approach of today's shortwave disturbance, a layer of high clouds is moving into the Valley and overcoming the Coast. Since the shortwave was displaced further North

Good Morning. We are starting the day with another round of freezing temps and dense fog. Today will be the last freezing and foggy day of the week. We are right on the edge of an approaching system today, so the fog will clear as the system arrives. With its arrival, high cloud cover will be impenetrable into the afternoon. Temps will warm in the Valley with mid 40's possible for the high. The Basin could hit about 50, and the Coast should stop before the mid 50's. The arrival of today's front will bring late rain onto the Coast while elevated chances increase inland. Although the wind direction will change, wind speeds are set to be uneventful. From today forward, conditions stay rainy.

Good Morning. The feature that brought rainfall yesterday is still overhead. However, it will be exiting the region through the back half of the day. So, this morning will be showery and wet while the afternoon will be drying. Cloud cover will stay high and opaque. The weather will remain calm until the next front arrives tomorrow and brings yet another round of rainfall. Since the disturbance is mostly to our East today, Mountain snowfall will sustain longer than Inland showers. High temps today will be warmer than yesterday with about 50 degrees inland and mid 50's on the Coast. The next several day feature a multitude of chaotic fronts that deliver several waves of rainfall with variations in wind patterns.

Happy Wednesday. Last night, a system took aim at the PNW and pushed inland. We are still dealing with the remaining energy from that system through the early morning. With that, showers will be common through about 8 am. After 8, ridging will begin to take over. Early morning observations are showing some fog developing from Newport to Florence, so further Costal fog is likely. So, conditions will be calm and drying from there forward. Temps today stay warm with widespread highs just at 60 degrees. High pressure looks like it will stick around through at least Friday morning, so the activity will die down until the weekend.

Good Morning. With pressure building over the region, its no wonder that satellite imagery is picking up fog down the entire Willamette Valley. Fog will linger through the morning before lifting gradually and revealing mostly cloudy skies. There could be some chances for sunshine in the Basin, but that will be the exception rather than the rule. Calm conditions dominate the day, but a small disturbance glances our Coast toward the evening and brings slight rain chances for a few hours. Any rainfall that occurs will be near trace levels. Temps will stay warm today with most areas hitting 57 while the Coast could get into the low 60's. A similar day is projected for Friday before activity picks back up this weekend.
