Local Alert Weather – Mon. PM

Happy Monday evening, everyone!

High pressure is giving way to some clouds overnight. Many areas will likely see some patchy freezing fog and low clouds develop after sunset. Low temperatures are expected to get into the low to mid 20s, which is slightly below average. Winds will be breezy at times gusting around 15 miles per hour.

Tuesday will see some low clouds and areas of freezing fog to start the day, but then we’ll see mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies. Temperatures will start cold in the 20s. Highs will top out in the low to mid 50s once the low clouds lift. Winds will pick up Tuesday gusting around 25 miles per hour out of the east.

Breezy conditions carry us into Wednesday as high pressure lifts. We’ll see more cloud roll in through the overnight, so we’ll wake up to partly cloudy skies Wednesday. Highs will top out in the upper 40s and lower 50s with breezy winds in the afternoon. We have a slight chance for rain showers, but it looks like most of Central Oregon will stay dry as of now.

The same conditions are on tap for Thursday as a slight chance for rain showers lingers. Moisture is being pulled up from the south, but again most of Central Oregon will stay dry.

Shower chances pick up Friday as the next system approaches. Temperatures will be in the mid 50s to round out the week.
