.DISCUSSION...
There will be a few showers across the mountains this morning, and
then across the Cascades this afternoon and evening. Otherwise dry
conditions are expected. Dry conditions are then expected through
Tuesday, when the next trough will begin to move onshore and bring
another chance of showers with thunderstorms possible over the
eastern mountains.
It will be breezy again today, mainly across the Columbia Basin of
Oregon and Kittitas Valley. In these areas, winds will gust 25 to
35 mph, and possibly as high as 40 mph.
Temperature will be a bit cooler today than on Friday, and will
end up below normal in many areas. Sunday will see warmer
temperatures, and Monday will have the warmest temperatures of the
next few days.
***Thunderstorms imply strong gusty winds***
***Winds are 20 foot 10 minute averages***
***CWR-chance of wetting rain 0.10 or greater***
