It’ll be a nice night though there will be a slight chance of a shower mainly in the south Cascades and southern Washington. Expect some areas of fog and low cloud to start Wednesday but it will be mainly dry. There will be some sun but we’ll have increasing clouds later in the day.
Our next weather system arrives with blustery rain by late Wednesday afternoon into early Thursday morning. Snow levels will fall down to about 5,000 feet with this system, so we shouldn’t have travel issues at the lower passes. Showers will taper on Thursday afternoon with a little sunshine and a drier spell into Thursday night.
However, some more generally light rain is likely to start Friday along with some sunbreaks, with the best chances of rain across the northwestern parts of the area during the day. The rain will scoot inland later in the day into Friday night, tapering into Saturday morning. Another blustery band of rain will likely move in for Sunday.
Temperatures will stay above average through the weekend with highs in the upper 50s and lows in the 40s.
There appears to be a pattern change next week that would make it more likely for heavy rainfall events across the Northwest. This would be expected as we move into mid-November — typically our rainiest time on the calendar. We’ll watch for any impactful events as the forecast evolves.
