Northwest Fire Weather Summary
The region will be seasonably warm again today. Showers and thunderstorms will develop this afternoon along the Cascades and Blue Mountains. Thunderstorms should stay mostly on the east side, but there is some potential for storms west of the Cascades particularly in southern Oregon. Coverage and intensity grow Friday with potential for strong storms with gusty outflow on the east side in the afternoon and evening with some lingering storms overnight. Breezy westerly winds are expected Friday through the Columbia Gorge, the Columbia Basin and across southeast Oregon. Cool, wet conditions are expected for the weekend and into next week. Check NWS forecasts for details in your area.
Northwest Fire Potential Summary
While damp conditions will keep significant fire potential generally low through the forecast period, PSA NW10 (Columbia Basin) will see some elevated risk Friday due to thunderstorms and winds. Fire behavior concerns will be short lived due to humidity limiting burn periods.
