I am expecting our first dose of the more traditional fall weather in western Oregon. Today looks very cool with showers. We may even get a cold-air thunderstorm from all the instability showers. It looks like this system will bring the Cascades its first dose of snow, but it won’t stick around at pass level.
Wednesday and Thursday look a little bit warmer and dry, but rain returns Friday with cold and showery weather on Saturday.
Tomorrow is the last day of our rain season. The new season begins October 1st. I’ll blog the final total when it’s available. As usual, it looks like Eugene will end the season more than one and a half feet below our seasonal average.
