Winter Weather Special Winter: Beyond The Forecast

Saturday

Hot as a Firecracker
Ho hum: another sunny day in the Northwest. Once again, the Fourth of July will be hot and dry across the region.

With high pressure still in command, look for sunshine and highs in most places in the 90s, with a few lower 100s in the Columbia Basin. A heat advisory is in effect for the lower Basin through the weekend, while the Willamette Valley remains under a heat advisory for Saturday. In addition, fire danger is rising too. A red flag warning for dangerous fire condtions is in effect for western Washington.

Changes are coming by next week. An upper-level low will replace the high, bringing cooler temperatures and a chance of showers. Monday into Tuesday, we'll see highs 10-20 degrees cooler, and a welcome chance of showers, especially in the mountains.

Have a good weekend and be safe out there.
