Here is my new weekly weather quiz question. “What is a “Roll Cloud?

____________

The Jet Stream is sending a lot of moisture to the Pacific Northwest. The graphics for days 1-3  show a frontal system moving through the Pacific Northwest today. Another front will be to our northwest Wednesday. The graphics for days 3-7   Friday through Tuesday show a cold front that will be to our northwest Saturday then pushing through the Pacific Northwest between Sunday and next Tuesday.

Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. “What is a “Rocketsonde?” Here is the correct answer. A Rocketsonde is type of radiosonde that is shot into the atmosphere by a rocket, allowing it to collect data during its parachute descent from a higher position in the atmosphere than a balloon could reach. Radiosondes are launched into the sky by helium weather balloons.

____________

An Upper Level High Pressure Ridge (“Arch” shape ) is weakening and will allow fronts to start moving into Oregon. The graphics for days 1-3  show a frontal system bringing rain to the Pacific Northwest today. The graphics for days 3-7  Wednesday through Sunday show a cold front that will be moving through Oregon Wednesday and another front to our northwest Saturday then pushing through the Pacific Northwest next Sunday.

Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. “What is a “Rocketsonde?” Here is the correct answer. A Rocketsonde is type of radiosonde that is shot into the atmosphere by a rocket, allowing it to collect data during its parachute descent from a higher position in the atmosphere than a balloon could reach. Radiosondes are launched into the sky by helium weather balloons.

____________

An Upper Level High Pressure Ridge (“Arch” shape ) is weakening and will allow fronts to start moving into Oregon. The graphics for days 1-3  show a frontal system bringing rain to the Pacific Northwest Sunday. The graphics for days 3-7    Tuesday through Saturday show a cold front that will be moving through Oregon Wednesday and another front to our northwest next Saturday.
