A High Pressure Ridge , that little bump offshore in the shaded area, will strengthen and keep our weather stable for a good portion of the week. Look for patchy morning fog or low clouds this morning through Wednesday with a mix of clouds and sun ( sometimes lots of sun, sometimes lots of clouds). Highs today 57, Tuesday 56, and about 60 on Wednesday. By Thursday an upper level trough of low pressure will be approaching and so will a cold front to spread clouds and then the chance of rain to the Pacific Northwest. Skies will be mostly cloudy Thursday high near 60 with a 50% chance of rain at night low 43. Mostly cloudy with a 50% chance of showers Friday and Friday night High 59 low 44. Saturday and Sunday will again be mostly cloudy with just a 30% chance of showers. High temperature Saturday 55 and 58 on Sunday.

Time for a new weekly weather quiz. Here is this week’s question. How fast do raindrops and snowflakes fall? You must give both. The first person to post the correct answer as a comment will win one free week of personalized forecasts tailored to their needs. Good luck.
