An upper level trough of low pressure (Shaded “U” shape with blue arrows) will  swing to the south and east at us increasing the onshore airflow. That will continue the cooling trend and hopefully scour out the smoke from the wildfires that surround us. As the winds shifted more from the Southwest smoke from the wildfire west of Cottage Grove moved in particularly in the South Hills of Eugene. The increased onshore airflow could mix the air enough to cut back the smokey haze. The Full Harvest Moon takes place at 6:38 PM this evening. It’s also the third super moon. Won’t be another one for quite a while.

Sorry, but no winner this week. Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. What is  “popcorn convection?” Here is the correct answer. Popcorn Convection is slang for showers and thunderstorms that form on a scattered basis with little or no apparent organization, usually during the afternoon in response to diurnal heating. Individual thunderstorms typically are of the type sometimes referred to as air-mass thunderstorms: they are small, short-lived, very rarely severe, and they almost always dissipate near or just after sunset. I’ll have a new weekly weather quiz question for you starting Monday. Please remember to post your answer as a comment by clicking on “no comments /comments” in the upper right hand portion of this page under the caption, then add your comment. The first person to post the correct answer will win a week of free personalized weather forecasts tailored to your needs. The answer has to be a comment to win. An email answer will not count. Good luck.

An upper level trough of low pressure (Shaded “U” shape with blue arrows) will  swing to the south and east at us increasing the onshore airflow. That will continue the cooling trend and hopefully scour out the smoke from the wildfires that surround us. As the winds shifted more from the Southwest smoke from the wildfire west of Cottage Grove moved in particularly in the South Hills of Eugene. The increased onshore airflow could mix the air enough to cut back the smokey haze.

Advisories:

• A RED FLAG WARNING IS IN EFFECT UNTIL 8 PM THIS EVENING FOR WIND AND LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY FOR THE EAST SLOPES OF THE NORTHERN CASCADES.
• A RED FLAG WARNING IS IN EFFECT FROM 11 AM UNTIL 11  PM MONDAY FOR WIND AND LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY FOR THE LOWER COLUMBIA BASIN OF OREGON.
• A HEALTH ADVISORY CONTINUES FOR THE PRESENCE OF BLUE-GREEN ALGAE FOR WALTERVILLE POND IN LANE COUNTY AND AT DEVILS LAKE IN LINCOLN COUNTY. THE TOXIC ALGAE BLOOM MEANS THAT PEOPLE SHOULD NOT HAVE DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE AFFECTED WATER AND THAT ALSO GOES FOR ANY PETS.

An upper level high pressure ridge (Shaded “Arch” shape with blue arrows) will be weakening and followed by a trough of low pressure that will swing to the south at us about midweek. In the meantime a thermal low pressure trough (red “L” with dashed vertical line on west coast on this surface map) will move east of the Cascades followed by some upper level disturbances. The airflow over the South Willamette Valley has shifted from the southwest bringing even more smoke into the valley.
