An Upper Level Low Pressure Trough (Shaded “U” shape with blue arrows) is moving through for a drastic cool down. The graphics for days 1-3 show the cold front that moved through Oregon. The graphics for days 3-7 show that no frontal systems will move through the Pacific Northwest today through next Wednesday. The weather is looking perfect for the Prefontaine Classic this Saturday and the Pre-Prefontaine events on Friday. The whole long Memorial Day Weekend is looking bright and dry.
