Upper Level High Pressure (Shaded “Arch” shape with blue arrows) weakened its hold on us. The graphics for days 1-3 show the next frontal system that that will move through the Pacific Northwest Thursday. An Upper Level Low Pressure Trough now takes control of our weather. The graphics for days 3-7 show the next frontal systems heading our way next Tuesday night and Wednesday and approaching the coast next Thursday.
