NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:01:57.810 --> 00:01:58.358 In fact, NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:01:58.358 --> 00:01:59.728 if anything it's possible to NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:01:59.728 --> 00:02:01.625 wind may ratchet up a few ticks NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:02:01.625 --> 00:02:02.895 here in the Willamette Valley. NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:02:02.900 --> 00:02:04.780 You can see South winds here in Portland NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:02:04.780 --> 00:02:06.478 and Salem on the order of about 40, NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:02:06.480 --> 00:02:08.650 maybe 4344 miles an hour. NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:02:08.650 --> 00:02:10.455 That's possible before this front NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:02:10.455 --> 00:02:12.260 eventually sweeps on through and NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:02:12.323 --> 00:02:14.379 it will because by noon time or one NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:02:14.379 --> 00:02:16.460 o'clock you can see the breeze really NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:02:16.460 --> 00:02:18.207 subsides here in Portland and shortly NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:02:18.207 --> 00:02:19.866 thereafter as we get down towards Salem, NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:02:19.870 --> 00:02:20.150 Corvallis, NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:02:20.150 --> 00:02:21.550 it'll take a little while NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:02:21.550 --> 00:02:22.670 longer for that window. NOTE Confidence: 0.955055167777778 00:02:22.670 --> 00:02:24.010 Subside east of the Cascades. NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:24.010 --> 00:02:25.290 How about the rain? NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:25.290 --> 00:02:27.618 Well, the rain train is here and it is NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:27.618 --> 00:02:29.270 focused squarely on Southwest Washington NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:29.270 --> 00:02:31.095 in Northwest Oregon this morning. NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:31.100 --> 00:02:32.647 But again, this front will move east, NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:32.650 --> 00:02:34.005 so by lunchtime the rain NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:34.005 --> 00:02:35.360 is beginning to taper off, NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:37.736 and I think this afternoon a good chance NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:37.736 --> 00:02:39.480 that a lot of the game at Providence. NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:39.480 --> 00:02:42.000 Park is actually dry today with NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:43.133 intermittent showers, right?

NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:50.600 --> 00:02:51.872 Meanwhile, in the Cascades, NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:51.872 --> 00:02:53.462 the snow will continue to NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:53.462 --> 00:02:55.180 fly and continue to pile up, NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:55.180 --> 00:02:57.819 so that is another big story here. NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:57.820 --> 00:02:59.364 It's been what a turn around, right? NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:02:59.364 --> 00:03:00.708 In the last seven days for NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:03:00.708 --> 00:03:01.840 snowfall in the Cascades.

NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:03:16.072 --> 00:03:18.058 And there's a boatload more snow NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:03:18.058 --> 00:03:19.682 level today about 3500 feet.

NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:03:26.932 --> 00:03:28.622 Over the next several days, NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:03:28.630 --> 00:03:29.974 another storm system sweeps NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:03:29.974 --> 00:03:31.318 on through on Monday, NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:03:31.320 --> 00:03:32.548 another one on Wednesday, NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:03:32.550 --> 00:03:33.828 and you can see Futurecast has NOTE Confidence: 0.862848182 00:03:33.830 --> 00:03:36.070 some lined up like flights at PDX.

Lower elevation snows. NOTE Confidence: 0.944466846 00:03:41.730 --> 00:03:42.770 Lower elevator I should NOTE Confidence: 0.944466846 00:03:42.770 --> 00:03:43.810 say high elevation snow, NOTE Confidence: 0.944466846 00:03:43.810 --> 00:03:45.716 low elevation rain in a forecast that NOTE Confidence: 0.944466846 00:03:45.716 --> 00:03:49.520 is very appropriate for late December.
