Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. What is the “Thermocline “? Here is the correct answer. The Thermocline : As one descends from the surface of the ocean, the temperature remains nearly the same as it was at the surface, but at a certain depth temperature starts decreasing rapidly with depth. This boundary is called the thermocline. In studying the tropical Pacific Ocean, the depth of 20ºC water (“the 20ºC isotherm”) is often used as a proxy for the depth of the thermocline. Along the equator, the 20ºC isotherm is typically located at about 50 m depth in the eastern Pacific, sloping downwards to about 150 m in the western Pacific.

The Jet stream is still sending cold air southward into the Pacific Northwest producing cold overnight temperatures and cooler than normal high temperatures. The graphics for days 1-3 show no frontal systems. The graphics for days 3-7 Wednesday through Sunday show no serious frontal activity over the Pacific Northwest until a cold front pushes through between Saturday and next Sunday.
Note: Ski Report: Willamette Pass Ski announced it is open now for early season skiing every day of the week, Hoodoo will be opening open 9am til 4pm Sunday then December 5-8., Mt. Ashland announced opening day will be Friday December 6th. Check their Web sites for specific mountain conditions and hours of operation.

____________
A split Split Jet Stream (North and South of us) brings plenty of sunshine, but cold overnight temperatures, through the weekend. The graphics for days 1-3 show no frontal systems. The graphics for days 3-7 Monday through Friday show no serious frontal activity over the Pacific Northwest through the period, but a complex frontal system will be well to our Northwest next Friday.
Note: Ski Report: Willamette Pass Ski announced it will be open again today Friday November 29th for early season skiing, Hoodoo announced opening today and open Saturday and Sunday, Mt. Ashland announced opening day will be Friday December 6th, Check their Web sites for specific mountain conditions and hours of operation.

Here is my new weekly weather quiz question. What is the “Thermocline “?
____________
Upper Level High Pressure takes over as the Jet Stream has moved to the south away from us bringing drying and plenty of sunshine through Thanksgiving Day through the weekend. The graphics for days 1-3 show no frontal systems. The graphics for days 3-7 Saturday through Wednesday show no serious frontal activity over the Pacific Northwest through the period, but a complex frontal system will be to our Northwest next Wednesday.
Note: Ski Report: Willamette Pass Ski announced it will be open again Friday November 29th for early season skiing, Hoodoo is not open yet, Mt. Ashland is not open yet.
