Showers decreasing...for some

by Don Carson

Updated today at 4:43 AM

 We'll split Friday's forecast into two halves -- Washington's and Oregon's (while splitting Idaho between north and south) -- because they'll have rather different conditions.

Low pressure that has spawned showers and thunderstorms the last few days will continue sliding south into Oregon on its way to California. With that, we'll see showers and a few thunderstorms confined mainly to Oregon and southern Idaho. Snow levels will be low, with several inches expected above 5,500'. Highs will be mostly in the 50s and 60s.

Meanwhile in Washington and north Idaho, sunshine should predominate, though some mountain showers could break out. Highs will top out in the 60s and 70s.

Saturday should be a dry day for most, though more showers are possible for southern Idaho. The inland Northwest should enjoy partly to mostly sunny skies for Sunday and Memorial Day, while a few showers could move into western Washington and Oregon.
