Okay, it’s been a week since we saw a big pattern change from warm & dry to cool & wet, and for the most part things have gone according to plan. The first 20 days of the month featured not one drop of rain, but now 7 of the last 8 days (including today) have seen measurable rainfall. The Cascades have also undergone change with several inches of snow blanketing the volcanic peaks. I really like these before and after pics of Mount Hood with the first picture taken on the 19th and the 2nd pic taken during the early morning hours on the 27th.

By the way, yesterday was just awesome (my opinion) with sunny skies, and comfortable temps. Anyway, here’s the extended forecast for Halloween and the week to follow:

Highlights

1.) Saturday will be mostly dry. It’s just probably going to stay cloudy for much of the day.

2.) Sunday looks great! Classic dry fall day. Fog is likely through the morning hours, but afternoon sunbreaks will follow with temps reaching 60 degrees or higher. 🙂

3.) Halloween starts off dry; however, rain moves in for the late afternoon and evening. It’s unlikely this will change, so plan for a wet evening.

Looking ahead, next weekend (Nov 4th and 5th) could be very wet/stormy, so if you’re hoping for dry weather I would take advantage of this weekend. Just a little heads up.

Have a wonderful and safe weekend!
