Northwest Fire Weather Summary
High pressure aloft coupled with a thermal trough at the surface will bring warming and drying to the region today through Friday. As an upper low approaches northern California late in the work week, the weather pattern will shift to cooler and wetter conditions. Moisture and instability will start to support convection across southern Oregon as early as Thursday afternoon. Thunderstorms are possible for most of Oregon Friday afternoon/evening with activity increasing and coverage expanding into eastern Washington Saturday. Gusty winds could accompany these storms. Storms should diminish Sunday for a drier start to next week, but it appears it will be short-lived with an active pattern continuing through the week. Check your NWS forecasts for local details.
Northwest Fire Potential Summary
Significant fire potential will remain at or below normal for the week, but lightning following a few days of warm, dry weather will boost potential for ignition and fire behavior. Open aspects or south slope areas with fine fuels, thatch or duff have the potential to support active fire behavior.
