...COLD WINTRY WEATHER EXPECTED EARLY NEXT WEEK...
AFTER A BRIEF WARM UP THIS WEEKEND...ANOTHER SURGE OF VERY COLD
AIR WILL MOVE SOUTHWARD OUT OF CANADA BEGINNING LATE MONDAY AND
TUESDAY. THIS COLD AIR WILL THEN LINGER OVER THE REGION THROUGH
MUCH OF NEXT WEEK. ON SUNDAY EXPECT WINDY CONDITIONS WITH SOME
RAIN...ESPECIALLY IN THE MOUNTAINS. RAIN IN THE MOUNTAINS WILL
THEN CHANGE TO SNOW MONDAY. SIGNIFICANT SNOW ACCUMULATIONS MAY BE
POSSIBLE IN THE MOUNTAINS BEGINNING MONDAY. ARCTIC AIR WILL THEN
MOVE SOUTHWARD ACROSS WASHINGTON INTO OREGON LATE MONDAY THROUGH
EARLY TUESDAY...CHANGING ANY POTENTIAL LINGERING RAIN TO
SNOW...EVEN AT THE LOWEST ELEVATIONS. SOME DRYING MAY OCCUR AS THE
COLD AIR MOVES INTO THE REGION...SO IT IS UNCERTAIN AT THIS TIME
HOW MUCH SNOW WILL FALL IN THE LOWER ELEVATIONS. HOWEVER...THE
POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR THE LOWER ELEVATIONS TO EXPERIENCE THEIR
FIRST MEASURABLE SNOW OF THE EARLY WINTER SEASON.
THOSE PLANNING TRAVEL ON SUNDAY SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR WINDY
CONDITIONS WITH AREAS OF RAIN. TRAVELERS SHOULD ALSO PLAN FOR
POSSIBLE SNOW OVER THE MOUNTAIN PASSES SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY.
BY MONDAY EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY...WINTRY CONDITIONS MAY EXIST
AREA WIDE. KEEP UP WITH THE LATEST STATEMENTS AND FORECASTS FROM
THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ON THIS DEVELOPING WEATHER SITUATION
AT WEATHER.GOV/PENDLETON.
