Here is my weekly weather quiz question. What is “Longitude? ”
________________
An Upper Level High Pressure Ridge (“Arch” shape) is moving closer to the Pacific coast and will keep temperatures a bit above normal. The graphics for days 1-3 show a frontal system offshore Friday then it falls apart as it approaches the Pacific Northwest. The graphics for days 3-7 Sunday through Thursday show a frontal system just to our northwest Tuesday then moving through the Pacific Northwest through next Thursday.
