The first person to post the correct answer will win a week of free personalized weather forecasts tailored to your needs. The answer has to be a comment to win. An email answer will not count. Good luck.

This week is “Lightning Safety Awareness Week” and the National Weather Service has a special web page just full of things you should know about lightning.

An upper level low (“U” shape on brown line) has set up along the Pacific Coast returning the chance of showers and increasing the chance for Saturday. A frontal system is poised to enhance the chance of showers as it moves closer, but it won’t move in until Saturday when the chance for showers increases. The pollen count will stay high enough, with showers stopping and starting, to bother those athletes who are allergic when it is dry. At least we don’t have smoke from wildfires or grass field burning as we did during the previous Olympic Trials held here.
________________
The pollen count for the Eugene-Springfield area is:
Grass- High (27)
Trees- Moderate (40)
