Local Alert Weather, Tue. AM, 3-19-19

Good Tuesday Morning, Everyone…

The advance of a system into northern California will increase clouds and winds to our SW, but it will leave Central Oregon under a pretty mild day. Patchy morning fog will clear. Sunny skies will allow temperatures to rise into the mid 50’s and easterly breezes will be gentle at 5-10 mph. Clouds will increase tonight along with a slight chance of scattered showers. Lows will be in the 20’swith gusty west winds picking up to 10-15 mph.

We will see some partial clearing Thursday and a modest warming trend that will carry us into Friday when we see highs near 60 degrees. Partly cloudy skies Friday morning will thicken quickly as the next system moves in. Rain Friday night will stretch into Saturday morning and then clear up as quickly as it moved in. Saturday’s highs will be a little below average, around 50 degrees. A little warming trend will have us back to average temps Sunday under mostly sunny skies. We will see highs a little above average Monday, but that is also when the next system presses in with a chance of some late day rain.

HAVE A SPARKLING DAY IN CENTRAL OREGON!
