Upper Level High Pressure (Shaded “Arch” shape with blue arrows) offshore gives us colder nighttime temperatures which could produce freezing rain making some roadways slippery. The graphics for days days 1-3 show the complex frontal system with a warm front moving northward through Oregon Wednesday into Thursday. The graphics for days 3-7 show new complex frontal systems  approaching the Pacific Northwest Saturday through next Wednesday.

NOTE: Hoodoo Ski Area is open.

Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. What is “Condensation?” Here is the correct answer. Condensation is in general, the physical process by which a vapor becomes a liquid or solid; the opposite of evaporation, although on the molecular scale, both processes are always occurring. I’ll have a new weekly weather question for you starting Monday. The first person to post the correct answer as a comment on this page will win a week of free personalized weather forecasts tailored to your needs.  Good luck.

Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. What is “Condensation?” Here is the correct answer. Condensation is in general, the physical process by which a vapor becomes a liquid or solid; the opposite of evaporation, although on the molecular scale, both processes are always occurring. I’ll have a new weekly weather question for you starting Monday. The first person to post the correct answer as a comment on this page will win a week of free personalized weather forecasts tailored to your needs.  Good luck.
