JANUARY...JANUARY WAS FOR THE MOST PART A RATHER MILD MONTH, WITH AVERAGE TEMPERATURES BEING A BIT ABOVE NORMAL. A STRONG FRONT BROUGHT RAIN AND GUSTY WINDS ON THE 4TH AND 5TH, WITH SOUTH WIND GUSTING TO 43 MPH AT THE AIRPORT. A FEW MORE STRONG FRONTS PUSHED ACROSS REGION ON THE 17TH/18TH AND AGAIN ON 22ND/23RD, EACH BRINGING RAIN AND WINDS GUSTING UP TO 35 MPH. HIGH PRESSURE SETTLED OVER THE REGION TO CLOSE THE MONTH, BRINGING DRY WEATHER AFTER THE 24TH, AND COOL FOGGY NIGHTS AND MORNINGS. DESPITE RAIN FALLING ON ABOUT HALF OF THE DAYS, TOTAL RAINFALL FOR THE MONTH WAS ABOUT HALF OF WHAT IS NORMALLY EXPECTED. FEBRUARY...OLD MAN WINTER SHOWED UP DURING THE FIRST PART OF THE MONTH, WITH LIGHT SNOW AND COLDER TEMPERATURES. SNOW, SLEET AND EVEN LIGHT FREEZING RAIN FELL AT TIMES FROM 4TH AND 5TH, AND AGAIN ON THE 9TH AND 10TH. ONLY MINOR ACCUMULATIONS ON VALLEY FLOOR, THOUGH HIGHER HILLS SUCH AS SOUTH HILLS AND COBURG HILLS DID SEE A FEW INCHES OF SNOW. WET WEATHER CONTINUES AFTERWARDS, WITH SIGNIFICANT INCREASE OF RAIN ON THE 23RD INTO 24TH AS STRONG FRONT PUSHED INTO THE REGION. THIS FRONT SLIPPED SOUTH OF EUGENE ON THE 24TH, THEN STALLED OVER SOUTHWESTERN OREGON. STRONG MOIST FLOW ALOFT MAINTAINED HEAVY PRECIPITATION OVER MUCH OF LANE COUNTY. BUT, LANE COUNTY WAS ON THE COLD SIDE OF THE FRONT, WHICH MEANT MOST OF THE PRECIPITATION WAS FALLING AS SNOW. SNOW BECAME HEAVY LATER ON THE NIGHT OF THE 24TH, WITH HEAVY SNOW MOST OF THE DAY 25TH. SNOW DECREASED, BUT CONTINUED ON THE 26TH BEFORE ENDING ON THE 27TH. EUGENE PICKED UP A TOTAL OF 15 TO 20 INCHES OF SNOW, WITH 2 TO 3 FEET IN HIGHER TERRAIN. HIGHWAYS WERE IMPASSABLE OR CLOSED, INCLUDING INTERSTATE 5 WHICH WAS CLOSED FROM ALBANY THROUGH EUGENE AND ROSEBURG. THE HEAVY WET SNOW CAUSED SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO TREES AND POWER LINES, WITH WIDESPREAD POWER OUTAGES. AT ONE POINT, IT WAS ESTIMATED THAT ABOUT 75 TO 80 PERCENT OF THE POWER GRID WAS OFFLINE. REPAIR CREWS HAD DIFFICULTY GETTING INTO THE REGION, AS DOWNED TREES BLOCKED ROADS. EVEN BUILDINGS WITH LARGE SPANNING ROOFS HAD PROBLEMS HOLDING UP UNDER OF THE WEIGHT OF THE SNOW. THE GYMNASIUM AT THURSTON HIGH IN SPRINGFIELD EXPERIENCED A PARTIAL COLLAPSE. HIGHER UP, THE HEAVY SNOW WAS TOO MUCH FOR THE TOWERING DOUGLAS FIRS TREES, AS MANY TREES COLLAPSED UNDER THE WEIGHT. SO MUCH THAT THE RAILROAD TRACKS WERE COVERED IN DOWNED TREES. AN AMTRAK TRAIN WAS STUCK NEAR OAKRIDGE FOR ABOUT 24 HOURS, STRANDING 183 CREW AND PASSENGERS ON THE 24TH INTO THE 25TH. OVERALL, THIS WAS THE MOST CRIPPLING SNOWSTORM TO HIT THE EUGENE AREA SINCE THE JANUARY 1969 AND 1971 SNOWSTORMS, PERHAPS EVEN MORE SO THAN THE DEVASTATING ICE STORM OF 2016. MARCH...AFTER A COOL START, THANKS TO ABUNDANT SNOW STILL ON THE GROUND FROM FEBRUARY. BUT, MILDERER CONDITIONS DID RETURN BY THE 11TH, WITH TEMPERATURES BACK INTO THE 60S. HIGH PRESSURE EAST OF THE CASCADES BROUGHT OFFSHORE WINDS, AND MILD DAYS AND COOL NIGHTS FROM 15TH TO THE 20TH. AFTER CHILLY STARTS WITH MORNING TEMPERATURES IN THE 30S, IT WAS MILD WITH AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES WELL INTO THE 60S AND TO MIDDLE 70S. AFTERWARD, IT WAS BACK TO WEATHER MORE TYPICAL OF LATE MARCH, WITH ALTERNATING RAINY AND SHOWERY DAYS. BUT, RAINFALL FOR MARCH AS 4TH DRIEST ON RECORD. APRIL...RAIN WAS RECORDED ON FIRST 15 DAYS OF THE FIRST 16 DAYS WITH HEAVY RAIN FALLING ON THE 6TH AND 7TH. ABOUT 4 TO 7 INCHES OF RAIN FELL ON HIGHER TERRAIN, WITH 2 TO 4 INCHES ACROSS THE LOWER TERRAIN OF THE SOUTH WILLAMETE VALLEY. THE 3.57 INCHES THAT FELL ON THOSE TWO DAYS WAS MOST FOR ANY 2-DAY PERIOD FOR APRIL, BREAKING THE OLD RECORD OF 2.63 INCHES BACK IN 1982. THE 7TH WAS ALSO THE WETTEST DAY EVER IN APRIL FOR EUGENE, WITH 2.34 INCHES (PRIOR RECORD WAS 2.05 INCHES ON 13 APR 1982). APRIL ENDED ON A DRY NOTE, BUT FINISHED AS THE 3RD WETTEST APRIL EVER ON RECORD, AND LITTLE OVER TWICE ITS NORMAL RAINFALL. THE HEAVY RAIN EARLY IN THE MONTH CAUSED FLOODING ON AREA RIVERS AND STREAMS. A LANDSLIDE ON 8TH CLOSED HIGHWAY 58 ABOUT 8 MILES WEST OF OAKRIDGE FOR A TIME. RELEASES FROM DORENA RESERVOIR PUSHED ROW RIVER AND THE COAST FORK OF WILLAMETTE RIVER TO FLOOD STAGE, WITH SOME EVACUATIONS OF HOMES ALONG THOSE RIVERS. MINOR FLOODING WAS REPORTED ALONG THE WILLAMETTE RIVER FROM EUGENE TO ALBANY, AS WELL AS ON THE MIDDLE FORK OF WILLAMETTE AND THE MCKENZIE. INTERESTINGLY, WITH ALL THE CLOUDS AND RAINY CONDITIONS TO START THE MONTH, DAILY HIGHS WERE COOLER THAN NORMAL WHILE OVERNIGHT LOWS WERE A LOT WARMER. AS A RESULT, THE AVERAGE TEMPERATURES WERE A BIT ABOVE NORMAL, MOSTLY DUE TO MILDER NIGHTS. MAY...TO THE DELIGHT OF GARDENERS, MAY BROUGHT WARM DAYS AND A LOT OF DRY DAYS. MOST ACTIVE WEATHER OCCURRED FROM 17TH TO 19TH, DURING WHICH SHOWERS AND FEW THUNDERSTORMS OCCURRED. THUNDERSTORMS PRODUCED FUNNEL CLOUDS NEAR TANGENT AND BROWNSVILLE, BUT NO DAMAGE WAS REPORTED. MAY ENDED LIKE IT STARTED...DRY AND MILD. JUNE...A QUITE PLEASANT, BUT UNEVENTFUL JUNE. MAJORITY OF THE RAIN FOR THE MONTH FELL ON 26TH INTO 27TH WHEN SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MOVED ACROSS THE AREA. THUNDERSTORM WINDS GUSTED UP TO 40 MPH AT THAT TIME. WITH THE DRY WEATHER, TEMPERATURES WARMED INTO THE 80S AND 90S AT TIMES. HOTTEST DAY WAS THE 12TH WITH A HIGH OF 98 DEG. JULY...GREAT SUMMER MONTH FOR OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES, WITH WARM AND DRY DAYS. LIKE JUNE, NEARLY ALL OF RAIN FELL ON ONLY A FEW DAYS. FOR JULY, 95 PERCENT OF THE MONTHS RAIN FELL ON 9TH INTO THE 10TH. WARMEST DAY OF JULY WAS ONLY 95 DEG. AUGUST...NEARLY A CARBON COPY OF JULY, AS CONTINUED ON MILD AND DRY SIDE. AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES WERE MOSTLY IN THE 80S TO LOWER 90S, BUT, DID SEE WARMEST DAY ON 27TH WHEN TEMPERATURES PEAKED AT 101 DEG. THEN, UPPER FLOW TURNED MORE SOUTHERLY, WITH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS POPPING OVER THE CASCADES AND THE WILLAMETTE VALLEY ON THE 29TH. THESE THUNDERSTORMS PROVIDED SPECTACULAR LIGHTNING SHOW IN THE EVENING, MAINLY TO EAST AND NORTH OF EUGENE. SEPTEMBER...SEPTEMBER OPENED ON THE WARM SIDE, WITH HIGHS IN 80S TO LOWER 90S. BUT, A STRONG FRONT ARRIVED ON THE 7TH, COOLING THE REGION. THOUGH THERE WERE SOME MILD DAYS, TEMPERATURES FOR REST OF THE MONTH STAYED IN THE 60S TO LOWER 70S. FOR MOST OF THE MONTH (AFTER THE 7TH), THE WEATHER PATTERN STAYED ACTIVE, WITH FRONTS BRINGING RAIN, INTERMIXED WITH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. TOTAL RAINFALL FOR SEPTEMBER WAS 5.28 INCHES, MAKING IT THE 2ND WETTEST SEPTEMBER ON RECORD (RECORD 7.08 IN 2013). OCTOBER...TYPICALLY, THE BIG TRANSITION FROM THE DRY MILD FALL WEATHER TO THE COOL WET WEATHER OCCURS AROUND THE 10TH. THIS OCTOBER WAS CLOSE TO THAT, AS COOLER TEMPS DOMINATED AFTER THE 8TH, WITH HIGHS MOSTLY IN THE 50S TO LOWER 60S. BUT, RAIN WAS NOT AS PERSISTENT, WITH THE MOST RAINY PERIOD BEING FROM THE 16TH TO 22ND. THE DRY MILD DAYS AND COOL NIGHTS ALLOWED FOR IDEAL CURING OF TREE FOLIAGE, PROVIDING SOME SPECTACULAR AUTUMN COLORS. COLD HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE NORTHERN ROCKIES ALLOWED CHILLY AIR TO SETTLE INTO THE COLUMBIA BASIN TOWARDS END OF THE MONTH. THIS CHILLY AIR SEEPED WESTWARD, AND FILLED MOST AREAS WEST OF THE CASCADES BY THE 29TH. MANY AREAS IN THE OUTLYING AREAS HAD TEMPERATURES DROP INTO THE UPPER TEENS, WITH THE AIRPORT DOWN TO 23 DEG ON HALLOWEEN, MAKING IT THE 3RD COLDEST HALLOWEEN (COLDEST WAS 17 DEG IN 2002 AND 2006). OCTOBER 2019 ENDED AS 4TH COLDEST ON RECORD, WITH ONLY OCT OF 1919, 1946 AND 1949 BEING TAD COLDER. NOVEMBER...A MILD MONTH, AS STORM TRACK WAS MOSTLY SHIFTED SOUTH OF THE REGION. THIS BROUGHT A LOT MORE IN WAY OF DRY DAYS, BUT ALSO LOT MORE IN WAY OF LATE NIGHT AND MORNING FOG. THERE WERE QUITE A FEW NIGHTS WHEN DENSE FOG FORMED, WITH THE FOG THINNING DURING THE DAY. A FRONT SWEPT ACROSS THE REGION ON 22ND AND 23RD, WITH RAIN AND MUCH COOLER AIR. A REINFORCING SHOT OF COLD AIR ARRIVED ON THE 28TH, WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS DROPPING INTO THE UPPER TEENS IN OUTLYING AREAS, BUT ONLY TO AROUND 20 DEG AT THE EUGENE AIRPORT ON 29TH AND 30TH. A WEAK FRONT LIFTING ACROSS THE AREA EARLY ON THE 30TH PRODUCING LIGHT SNOW FOR A FEW HOURS. BUT, ONLY A DUSTING OR LESS WAS REPORTED BY MOST. IN THE END, NOVEMBER ENDED AS THE 5TH DRIEST ON RECORD WITH 1.23 INCH OF RAIN, LESS THAN 20 PERCENT OF NORMAL. DECEMBER...A RATHER BENIGN AND QUIET FIRST HALF OF THE MONTH. BUT, THEN A RETURN TO CONDITIONS THAT RESEMBLED WEATHER MORE TYPICAL OF WINTER, WITH RAIN AND BREEZY CONDITIONS FROM TIME TO TIME. AOTHER BREEZY FRONT SWEPT ACROSS THE SOUTH WILLAMETTE VALLEY ON THE 18 TO 19TH, WITH WINDS GUSTS UP TO 40 MPH, AND 2 TO 3 INCHES OF RAIN. OVERALL, THE MONTH ENDED AS MILDER AND DRIER THAN NORMAL. ============================================================= NEW RECORDS SET IN 2019 (PREVIOUS RECORD IN PARENTHESES) + INDICATES MOST RECENT OF MULTIPLE OCCURRENCES JANUARY...
