Fire Weather Planning Forecast for NE Oregon and SE Washington
National Weather Service Pendleton OR
608 AM PDT Wed Oct 8 2025
.DISCUSSION...Dry and seasonal conditions will persist across the
forecast area today. An incoming system will however, bring
cooling temperatures and moisture to the region over the weekend
with wetting rains likely (60-80%) by the weekend. The cooler air
will also bring snow levels down allowing for snow accumulations
above 4-5kft. Winds will be locally breezy with most areas seeing
winds below 10 mph. Min RHs will be poor to good (20-40%) with
overnight recoveries moderate trending excellent by the weekend
(60-80%).
***Winds are 20 foot 10 minute averages***
***CWR-chance of wetting rain 0.10 or greater***
***Ventilation Index is derived from the
transport wind multiplied by the mixing
height in 100`s of feet. Index categories
are a generalized indicator and users are
encourage to develop criteria that are
suitable and representative of dispersion
conditions in their local area of interest.***
Note: Max transport winds may not occur
at the same time as max mixing height.
