Fire Weather Planning Forecast for NE Oregon and SE Washington
National Weather Service Pendleton OR
254 PM PDT Sat Jun 15 2024


.DISCUSSION...Passing system has brought gusty winds that will
continue through tonight. Another system moves across Sunday into
Monday, bringing another round of precipitation, primarily along
the Cascades and from Central Oregon up through the Blues and
Wallowas, though overall QPF is expected on the light side leading
to limited overall wetting rains outside of the highest terrain.
This should also bring mountain snow as temperatures will be very
cool, with several inches possible above 4500 feet. Overnight lows
outside of the mountains will range in the 30`s to 40`s, with near
to below freezing lows in the mountains themselves.




***Winds are 20 foot 10 minute averages***
***CWR-chance of wetting rain 0.10 or greater***
