Local Alert Weather – Fri. AM

Happy Friday morning, everyone!

We’re in for a pleasant, calm weekend. Winds will be breezy at times, but we’re not expecting much in terms of precipitation. Daytime highs will top out in the mid to upper 50s and lower 60s. Average daytime highs are in the mid 40s. Partly cloudy skies will start the day giving way to some sun through the late morning and afternoon. Some clouds will roll in around 5 p.m. tonight.

Overnight lows will be in the 30s and 40s. Partly cloudy to mostly cloudy skies will be overhead. Winds tonight will be out of the south around 10 miles per hour.

Snow levels are high through the weekend around 7,000′ to 8,000′. The mountains and the Cascades will see more rain than snow, but the snow that does fall would be very wet and heavy. Today will be breezy at Mt. Bachelor and warm with highs in the upper 30s and lower 40s.

Saturday will see a few more clouds overhead. Rain showers will have a better chance for the Cascades tomorrow, but the High Desert remains dry. Highs will be in the low to mid 50s.

Super Bowl Sunday sees highs a little warmer in the mid to upper 50s and lower 60s. We’ll see some sunshine in the morning, so get out and enjoy it before you watch the big game on NBC later in the day.

The extended forecast is a dry, mild one. Highs will be above average as well as lows. We’ll see variable cloud cover.

Have a happy & safe weekend!
