Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. What is the “Coriolis Force?” Here is the correct answer. The Coriolis Force is a fictitious force used to account for the apparent deflection of a body in motion with respect to the earth, as seen by an observer on the earth. The deflection (to the right in the Northern Hemisphere) is caused by the rotation of the earth. I’ll have a new weekly wether quiz 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.

An Upper Level Low Pressure Trough (Shaded “U” shape with blue arrows) has taken control returning the wet weather. It has slowly moved across the Pacific Northwest. The graphics for days 1-3 show the next frontal system well offshore this morning as a short-lived High Pressure Ridge (Shaded “Arch” shape with blue arrows) decrease the showers for the day Saturday. The graphics for days 3-7 show the next frontal system heading our way Thursday and another approaching the coast next Sunday AM.
