An upper level high pressure ridge (Shaded “Arch” shape with blue arrows) will move in closer to the Pacific Northwest today taking over for the weekend. The official rain total for Eugene Wednesday was 0.74 inches while my rain gauge showed 1.28 inches of rain and of course more fell Thursday. I  measured only 0.06 inches in my rain gauge while the Weather Service reported 0.05 inches for Thursday.
