Here is my weekly weather quiz question. What is “Steam Fog?”
____________
An Upper Level High Pressure Ridge (“Arch” shape) took over control of our weather for just one day. The graphics for days 1-3 show a cold frontal system that moved through Oregon Wednesday with another behind it. The graphics for days 3-7 Sunday through Thursday show a cold front will be moving into the Pacific Northwest Wednesday.
