NWS Forecaster Discussion
Area forecast discussion National Weather Service Pendleton or 242 am PDT Wednesday may 16 2012 Short term...today through Thursday night...clouds will increase today as a trough of low pressure moves inland tonight. Most of the energy with this system will move south and east of the area...but there is a slight chance of precipitation for Thursday along the far south and east portion of the forecast area. The main effect with this system will be breezy to locally windy conditions this afternoon and tomorrow afternoon as well as cooler temperatures. Temperatures on Thursday afternoon are expected to be in the middle 60s to middle 70s in the lower elevations and in the lower to middle 60s for the mountains. Dmh Long term...Friday through Tuesday...west to northwest flow aloft will generally provide dry and seasonable conditions to the forecast area through Saturday. An upper level trough begins to approach the area Friday producing an increasing chance of rain mainly along the east slopes of the Washington Cascades. The upper trough slowly makes its way over the forecast area Monday spreading a chance of rain throughout much of the County Warning Area. Aforementioned trough lingers over the area through the remainder of the forecast period. However...relatively strong zonal flow should keep the basin generally dry. Both the GFS and European model (ecmwf) hint at an abnormally cold trough moving over the area by weeks end. Earle && Aviation...12z tafs. VFR conditions will persist through the period. Winds will be 10-15 knots...except 15-20 knots kdls. Earle && Preliminary point temps/pops...
