.DISCUSSION...Radar image shows isolated showers moving in from
the southwest from about Gold Beach north and north of the Umpqua
Divide. Any showers will likely not result in measurable rainfall
into early this evening. Any showers will end early this evening
with dry weather overnight tonight. Also no lightning has been
observed in the last several hours. Additionally, this pattern is
not one where it typically results in thunderstorms and the data
suggest the ingredients are not present for thunderstorms. Thus,
they have been removed from the forecast for this evening.

Dry weather is likely this evening through Wednesday night as
upper ridging builds into the area. Afternoon temperatures
Wednesday will be milder with low 70s expected for the interior
westside valleys and upper 60s to around 70 east of the Cascades.

There`s good agreement precipitation with the next front will
reach the coast mid to late Thursday morning. The front will push
onshore west of the Cascades Thursday afternoon, with the best
chance for measurable rainfall along the coast, coastal mountains
and north of the Umpqua Divide. Elsewhere it will be dry with
gusty breezes east of the Cascades. -Petrucelli
