.DISCUSSION...
An upper low off the coast will gradually move eastward through
Monday, with the broader upper trough impacting the area over the
weekend.
Showers and thunderstorms will affect the Pacific Northwest over
the next few days...mainly over central Oregon today, then central
Oregon and the Cascades on Saturday. A Red Flag Warning remains in
effect through this evening.
Thunderstorms look to become more wet through the weekend and
some areas, especially the mountains and central Oregon could end
up getting some decent rainfall amounts.
The biggest question remains about cloud-to-ground lightning
strikes, and how many in a given area and what that impact will
be on any new fire starts, especially on Saturday. Other questions
are what impact smoke will have on thunderstorm development and if
rain will alleviate concerns from lightning, at least in some
areas.
Will need to keep watch on this to see if any fire weather
headlines become necessary.
By Wednesday, more generally low (700-704-
     705.
WA...None.
