It’s been another full week, and so this will be a quick update.

Details

Showers Saturday afternoon. What looked several days ago like a wet day could very well have large chunk of dry time. I’m thinking showers move into the Willamette Valley around 2pm give or take a couple hours. Showers will generally move from southwest to northeast, so locations like Canby, Silverton and up towards 205 in Portland could have a mostly dry afternoon while locations like Independence, Corvallis, and Albany see rain starting closer to 1 or 2pm. Highs topping out near 70° before cooling off with the arrival of the showers. A thundershower or two are possible along with a few stronger downpours.

Showers continue through Sunday morning. Sunday afternoon should be mostly dry, maybe a leftover shower, but that’s about it. Highs in the upper 60s.

Monday and Tuesday

Partly cloudy and dry. Lows 48 – 52° and afternoon highs in the 70s.

Wednesday – Friday

Warmer with more sunshine. Lows will continue to start out on the cooler side (upper 40s to low 50s), but afternoons will feel very warm. I’m thinking highs 84 to 88° these three days.

That’s all for today. Still loving my new teaching job, but working extremely hard and extra time has been limited. Hopefully I’ll have some more exciting posts with graphics, maps, and charts in the near future as I settle into this new role.

Today, I want to remind us that we vowed to never forget what happened 25 years ago today. A few years back I wrote this post linked here, and it still holds true today (scroll past the forecast part). Let us never forget. Let us remember the victims. Let us remember the families impacted that day, and let us remember the lives of those brave people who selflessly sacrificed to save others.
