Weather Discussion
...Modest warming today will be accompanied by a few
light, stray showers. A stronger disturbance late tonight into
Sunday evening will produce additional showers and a slight chance
of afternoon and evening thunderstorms, with the highest
probability for the Cascades and east side. A warming and drying
trend could bring above average temperatures for Wednesday
and Thursday. Uncertainty remains for the end of the week and
into the weekend.
