Fxus66 kpqr 232143 afdpqr area forecast discussion national service portland or 243 pm pdt Fri aug 23 2019 Synopsis Seasonable weather through this weekend, with areas of morning clouds. Warmer weather is expected next week with interior temperatures likely warming into the upper 80s to lower 90s. Short term This afternoon through Tuesday... An upper trough approaching british columbia is beginning to flatten the upper ridge today for a more zonal weather pattern that will persist through Sunday. A surface low associated with the upper trough to the north will form a weak surface front that will brush by the south washington coast and willapa hills on Saturday. This will result in increased clouds along the coast and extreme SW washington, and occasional light rain. Increased pops to chance for the southern washington and northern oregon coasts, willapa hills, and coast range. It looks like there's a decent chance at a few hundredths of accumulation, although not sure if it will fall as drizzle or light rain. Could even see a bit of drizzle on the eastern slopes of the nw coast range, near banks, cornelius, and forest grove. This weak front and clouds will also result in slightly cooler temperatures Saturday afternoon. Seasonal, dry weather is expected for Sunday with clouds returning to the coast and parts of the willamette valley in the morning and clearing in the afternoon. The upper ridge begins to amplifies on Monday, beginning a warming trend. Latest model runs show thermal troughing developing over western oregon on Monday, resulting in light offshore flow. This will magnify the heating a little bit Monday if offshore flow develops early enough in the day. Thermal troughing moves over the willamette valley Tuesday, which is a typical local hot pattern. Upped temperatures a few degrees, blending the ECMWF and nbm. The ECMWF is the hottest model currently, but usually does pretty well with hot temperatures. There is the potential that Tuesday could see the hottest temperatures of the summer so far, but models have been a little bit squirrelly over the past couple of days, so still not completely confident in actual temperatures. Either way, it looks

hot. Bowen Long term Tuesday night through Friday... Wednesday looks much the same as Tuesday in the upper levels, but at the surface, the thermal trough moves offshore. Models are actually showing kind of a splitting of the thermal trough and the beginnings of a southwesterly push, which complicates temperatures. For most areas, Wednesday will likely be similarly hot to Tuesday, but there's some chance that the southern portion of the forecast area will cool Wednesday. Models show the upper level remnants of a long-deceased tropical system interrupting the ridging Thursday into Friday, which should bring at least a few degrees of cooling and end the offshore flow. Overall for next week, it still looks hot, as it has for a few days now, but still not confident in exactly how hot. Bowen Aviation MVFR CIGS return to the coast late this afternoon but more likely tonight. Expect some -ra or -dz from about ktmk northward on the coast after 11z Saturday. For inland locations, expectVFR conditions through 18z Saturday. Kpdx and approaches...VFR. Light winds becoming northwest around 10 kt later this afternoon through evening hours. Mh bowen Marine High pressure continues to weaken through the weekend as a weak trough moves through. The high pressure strengthens again late this weekend and into next week. This will cause a return to a more typical summer pattern. Seas 4 to 6 ft through the weekend. Seas will build some each afternoon and evening with increasing northerly winds. Seas likely to reach 8 or even 9 ft early next week with strongest winds. 42 Pqr watches warnings advisories Or... None. Wa... None. Pz... None. Interact with us via social media:

Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program.
