What a change of weather over the last four days. We've gone from low elevation snow to sunny and somewhat warm temperatures. We'll see more sunshine today and tomorrow. Highs will be pushing 60 degrees. The weekend brings a change. Saturday, the rain returns. Sunday, even more rain. The QPF or Quantitative Precipitation Forecast (amount of precip forecasted to fall) is saying we are looking at anywhere from 9 to 12 inches of water falling from the skies over the next 180 hours. While this will raise creeks and rivers, I don't think we will see massive low land flooding. We're are still very dry around here and a nice soaking will do wonders for our rain totals so far. Another limiting factor of flooding is that the mountains will still hold the snow pack. Temps up there will remain in the 30's. So enjoy the sunshine today and tomorrow !
The Oregon AMS will hold its March meeting this evening at the KPTV TV studios in Beaverton. Doors will open at 6:45pm, meeting will start at 7 ! Steve Pierce of Vancouver will recap the winter we just had. Mark Nelsen, Chief Meteorologist will also recap the east wind event in January. Details are here!
