Here is my new weekly weather quiz question. What is “tailwater height?” Please remember to post your answer as a comment by clicking on “no comments /comments” in the upper right hand portion of this page under the caption, then add your comment. 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.

A strong upper level low (Shaded “U” shape with blue arrows) is sending a frontal system into the Pacific Northwest and will keep us wet through the weekend. A complex frontal system (position shown is Monday) will move in early next week. Don’t forget Halloween is Friday and there is a pretty good chance it will be raining. Daylight Saving Time ends at 2:00 AM Sunday so you’ll have to “Fall Back” by turning your clock back one hour at bedtime Saturday night.
