Here is my new weekly weather quiz question. What is “Longitude? ”
________________
An Upper Level High Pressure Ridge (“Arch” shape) is moving closer to the Pacific coast and will warm us up into next week.. The graphics for days 1-3 show no frontal systems approaching the Pacific Northwest. The graphics for days 3-7 Friday through Tuesday show a frontal system just to our northwest Friday then moving through Oregon Saturday and Sunday with a front to our northwest next Tuesday.
