Here is my new weekly weather quiz question. What is an “Omega High?” No, it has nothing to do with recent Oregon legislation. Try again. 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.

An upper level high pressure ridge (Shaded “Arch” shape) has been keeping our airflow from the north spreading much colder air over the Pacific Northwest. The airflow will slowly shift to onshore as the ridge flattens out and start warming us up to more normal temperatures. With the possibility of freezing fog in the area be especially careful driving home from the New Year’s Eve party. Please use a designated driver and don’t drive drunk.
