An upper air trough of low pressure (“U” shape on the orange jet stream line) is slowly moving to the east allowing high pressure to help dry us out for a bit. A frontal system pushed through and dropped some more rain on us Wednesday and continued today, but that will be over for a while at least. Too bad the light rain or drizzle had to hang on for the Ducks vs Cal game at Autzen Stadium this evening.

Advisories: A HIGH WIND WATCH IS IN EFFECT FROM TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH TUESDAY EVENING FOR THE SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTH OREGON COAST, NORTHERN AND EASTERN KLAMATH COUNTY, AND CENTRAL, EASTERN, AND WESTERN LAKE COUNTY.

An upper air trough of low pressure (“U” shape on the orange jet stream line) is sending even more moist cooler air our way. One frontal system came through already and a second even stronger one is sweeping through Oregon dropping more rain on us. A warm front (still offshore to our Southwest) will come in first then the cold front behind it Tuesday giving us the cloudiness and moisture of early Autumn.
