Local Alert Weather – Mon. PM

Happy Monday evening, everyone!

The rest of the night includes a slight chance for an isolated shower, but overall we’ll be dry. Clouds will gradually clear overhead this evening as the system that brought us the showers, clouds, and cooler temperatures exits the region. Tonight winds will be kicking up around 20 miles per hour at times out of the north. Overnight lows and temperatures tomorrow morning will be in the 20s and low to mid 30s.

As a seasonal note: temperatures are below average and allergy levels are high. Cover any outdoor or sensitive plants you might have put in the ground already as temperatures will be at or below the freezing mark for many areas. Tree pollen levels are ‘high’ right now, so take care if you have allergy sensitivities.

We begin Tuesday with temperatures in the 20s and 30s, so bundle up if you’re headed out the door. We’ll see much more sunshine to begin the day than what we saw for Monday. Through lunchtime we can expect mostly sunny skies. Highs will top out in the mid to upper 50s and lower 60s. Some clouds will develop in the afternoon, but Central Oregon can expect to stay dry. The highest elevations might see an isolated shower or two.

Wednesday brings more sunshine and warmer temperatures topping out in the upper 60s and lower 70s. Thursday will be the warmest day of the week with highs in the mid to upper 70s making it feel more like summer than spring.

This weekend is looking warmer than the previous weekend. Conditions are looking dry, but a disturbance overnight Saturday into Sunday could deliver a few light rain showers our way.
