AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PENDLETON OR
246 PM PDT TUE JUL 1 2008

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT...AREA TO REMAIN UNDER
WEAKLY SHEARED...DIFFLUENT SOUTHERLY UPPER LEVEL FLOW THIS EVENING.
ONE UPPER DISTURBANCE EXTENDING FROM SOUTH-CENTRAL WASHINGTON TO
EXTREME NORTHEAST OREGON CONTINUES TO SHIFT EAST-NORTHEAST.
MEANWHILE ANOTHER DISTURBANCE IS SWINGING INTO CENTRAL OREGON AT THE
MOMENT. THESE WAVES WILL KEEP ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS GOING THROUGH THE EVENING. BEST COVERAGE WILL BE IN
NORTHEAST OREGON/EXTREME SOUTHEAST WASHINGTON AND OVER CENTRAL
WASHINGTON CASCADES. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE SLOW MOVERS
LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...AND LOCAL FLOODING MAY BE A
PROBLEM ALONG WITH SOME GUSTY WINDS. THE SECOND DISTURBANCE...
CURRENTLY OVER CENTRAL OREGON...SHOULD MOVE OUT OF THE AREA AROUND
MIDNIGHT. THIS SHOULD LEAD TO A SIGNIFICANT DECREASE (IF NOT AN END)
TO THE CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY OVER THE REGION. THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST
WILL REMAIN UNDER A SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY
NIGHT. AS A RESULT THE AIR MASS OVER THE REGION WILL REMAIN MOIST
AND UNSTABLE...WHILE DISTURBANCES CONTINUE TO MOVE ACROSS THE AREA.
THUS ISOLATED TO SCATTERED COVERAGE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
CONTINUE TO AFFECT THE AREA. THESE STORMS WILL MOSTLY HAVE AN
AFTERNOON AND EVENING MAXIMUM OF OCCURRENCE...BUT STORMS MAY OCCUR
AT ANY TIME DURING THE PERIOD. A MARINE PUSH LOOKS TO DEVELOP LATE
THURSDAY OR THURSDAY NIGHT. THIS MAY FOCUS SOME OF THE CONVECTION
OVER THE AREA THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. 90

.LONG TERM...FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...A MID LEVEL TROUGH WILL
PUSH ACROSS THE AREA FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT WITH SOME THUNDERSTORMS
POSSIBLE ACROSS MOST PORTIONS OF THE REGION. THE TROUGH WILL DRIFT
EAST WITH LINGERING SHOWERS OVER THE FAR EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE
AREA SATURDAY THAT INCLUDES THE WALLOWA AND BLUE MTNS. BY SATURDAY
NIGHT A WEAK RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING DRY CONDITIONS ACROSS
THE ENTIRE REGION AND THESE CONDITIONS SHOULD PERSIST INTO SUNDAY.

MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT...A LITTLE BIT OF CHANGE TODAY FROM
YESTERDAYS FORECAST... NEW MODELS STILL INDICATE THE RIDGE CENTERED
OVER NEVADA...HOWEVER WE MAY STILL BE UNDER A MORE WEST SOUTHWEST
FLOW...VERSUS THE SOUTHWEST FLOW FROM THE MORE AMPLIFIED RIDGE
YESTERDAY.  FOR THIS TEMPERATURES HAVE BEEN BACKED OFF A LITTLE ON
MONDAY AS THE RIDGE BEGINS TO STRENGTHEN BUT STILL BELIEVE IT TO BE
PRETTY HOT ON TUESDAY...AS IT BECOMES MORE DEFINED.  MOST OF THE
PACIFIC NORTHWEST SHOULD BE DRY WITH NO INDICATION OF PRECIPITATION
DURING THIS TIME PERIOD. 97/89

&&

.AVIATION...THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE IN AND NEAR ALL TAF SITES AND
MORE SO NEAR THE FOOTHILLS THAT INCLUDES KPDT AND KALW AND APPROACH
MVFR CONDITIONS UNTIL 05Z.
