The upper level airflow from over the Pacific Ocean is pumping moisture into the Pacific Northwest. A frontal system is moving through Eastern Oregon and the rain is decreasing. A second frontal system (shown: position on Friday) will move in, the warm front first today and the cold front between tonight and Friday, and if we are lucky, after its passage, it might be drier over the weekend, with maybe a just a slight chance of sprinkles Saturday night and Sunday.

Advisories: A HIGH WIND WATCH IS IN EFFECT FROM THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING FOR THE SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTH OREGON COAST.
