An Upper Level Low Pressure Trough (Shaded “U” shape with blue arrows) has taken control returning the wet weather. It will slowly move across the Pacific Northwest tonight. The graphics for days 1-3 show the next frontal system well offshore Sunday morning as a short-lived High Pressure Ridge (Shaded “Arch” shape with blue arrows) decreases the showers for the day Saturday. The graphics for days 3-7 show the next frontal system heading our way Wednesday and another one out over the Pacific Ocean next Friday that will be heading our way.
