Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. What is a “Lenticular Cloud? Here is the correct answer. A Lenticular Cloud is a very smooth, round or oval, lens-shaped cloud that is often seen, singly or stacked in groups, near or in the lee of a mountain ridge.

An Upper Level High Pressure Ridge continues to move to the east returning the flow of coastal moisture. The graphics for days 1-3  Show the cold front moving into Oregon Sunday. The graphics for days 3-7  Tuesday through next Saturday show a quiet weather pattern until a frontal system slides into the Pacific Northwest Friday and another offshore next Saturday.
