Here is my weekly weather quiz question. What is “Longitude? ”
________________
An Upper Level High Pressure Ridge (“Arch” shape) will keep temperatures near or a bit above normal. The graphics for days 1-3 show no frontal systems approaching the Pacific Northwest. The graphics for days 3-7 Monday through Friday show a frontal system just to our northwest Tuesday then moving through the Pacific Northwest Wednesday and Wednesday night. Then a cold front will be way off to the northwest next Friday.
