Local Alert Weather, Thu. AM, 9.20.18

Good Thursday Morning, Everyone…
As high pressure begins to gain strength over the Pacific NW we will see what few clouds we have move out of the area and leave us with plenty of sunshine. Highs today will stay cool; only reaching the low 70’s. NW breezes will stay pretty gentle at 5-10 mph. Those breezes will become light and variable this evening. Skies will stay pretty clear tonight. Lows will dip well down into the 30’s.
We will get a burst of warm temps under sunny skies Friday and then the next system will press into the NW for the weekend. Central Oregon will be to the south of the main strength of that system, so while we will see a few clouds and cooler temps, we are also expecting to stay dry. Highs Saturday will be in the low 70’s and then the upper 60’s for Sunday. Sunday night most will see lows down around freezing. High pressure will build back in beginning Monday and that will bring sunshine and a warming trend that will have us back in the low 80’s by midweek.

HAVE A SPARKLING DAY IN CENTRAL OREGON!
