620 FNUS76 KMFR 180233 FWSMFR Spot Forecast for Jackson County Search and Rescue Summer X...Jackson County Sheriffs National Weather Service MEDFORD OR 733 PM PDT Fri May 17 2024 Forecast is based on forecast start time of 0600 PDT on May 18. If conditions become unrepresentative...contact the National Weather Service. .DISCUSSION...Temperatures will be mild across the search location as high pressure breaks down. Skies will generally begin clear and will begin to cloud up somewhat, especially to the north. Winds will be gusty in the afternoon and evening time frame. Humidities will be dry. Overnight, expect the winds to decrease after 11pm. As cloud cover increases modestly overnight, expect a slight reduction in visibilities (but VFR should largely remain). The caveat here is that areas to the north of the search location (the northern aspects of the Rogue-Umpqua Divide may see some MVFR stratus build in overnight with a semblance of an inversion). This will clear up around 9-10 AM as Sunday appears to be a very similar day to Saturday, albeit with cooler temperatures and less breezy winds. .SATURDAY... Sky/weather.........Sunny.
