Not Much Action

Posted by Rufus La Lone on

Friday the Thirteenth
Mild & periodically damp.  That’s the wrap on the wx for the remainder of September.  Sip time
As our tag line suggests, not much ’big’ weather action ahead, just a few days with showers, some cloudiness, mild temps (60s-70s) and thankfully, decent sun breaks.  Oh, and add an extended dry spell at the end, as well.
In the near term, we can expect the driest days - speaking broadly, for the entire PNW - will be today and Monday; the wettest days will be next Tue and early Wed the 18th.  For this weekend, most of the showers will be over the Puget Sound region; here in Oregon we can’t rule out at least the chance for a couple, mainly Sunday.  
Next week will yield a pleasant Monday before the wettest system for the rest of Sept arrives.  The Wx Service suggests this one could be strong enough to truly tap-down the forest fires.  Let’s hope this verifies.  It will turn DRY starting late Wed.
That’s right, models suggest a dry period that could last on through the balance of September.  Furthermore, the last several days of the month may trend up into the warm temperatures range, primarily for western OR.  Too early to peg that, just a mention for now.
The nights ahead will trend cool, which can be favorable to conditioning wine grapes to the delight of vintners. “Diurnal Swing."
Although a bit corny, today’s quip is weather related.  From the ’Net:  “Where do bad rainbows go?  To Prism. It’s a light sentence, but it gives them time to reflect.”
