Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. “What is the “Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale?” Here is the correct answer. The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale is a 1 to 5 categorization based on the hurricane’s intensity at the indicated time. The scale provides examples of the type of damage and impacts in the United States associated with winds of the indicated intensity. In general, damage rises by about a factor of four for every category increase. The maximum sustained surface wind speed (peak 1-minute wind at the standard meteorological observation height of 10 m [33 ft] over unobstructed exposure) associated with the cyclone is the determining factor in the scale. The scale does not address the potential for other hurricane-related impacts, such as storm surge, rainfall-induced floods, and tornadoes.

An Upper Level Low Pressure Trough (“U” shape) allows frontal movement through the Pacific Northwest. The graphics for days 1-3  show a weak cold front moving through the Pacific Northwest Friday. The graphics for days 3-7   Wednesday through Sunday show no frontal systems pushing through the Pacific Northwest until a cold front moves through next Sunday.
