GORDON’S UPDATE: Weather 6/15/23 – Showers expected on Sunday

Posted on June 15, 2023 by Editor

By Gordon McCraw, Meteorologist for the Tillamook County Pioneer
Well, it continues to look like we will have one more fair and mild day before a bit of a pattern change happens. The ridge of high pressure will remain just off the coast this evening then tomorrow an upper level disturbance moves across to the north, only giving us some increased cloudiness. So, tonight we see mostly cloudy skies with the winds becoming light and variable, the low tonight near 47.

Tomorrow, we see more mid and high clouds rolling in, the winds becoming northwesterly 5-10, the high tomorrow near 63, more of the same tomorrow night, lows near 48.

Saturday starts out about the same with mostly cloudy skies and the northwesterly winds 5-10, a little cooler with the high only near 59. That night we have a slight chance of rain starting after around midnight as a front approaches, lows near 47.

Sunday the models start to make forecasting more fun as they do not agree on how to handle a developing low pressure area to our northwest, and just how much rain this system will bring to the area. It looks like this slow-moving low-pressure area will be dropping down the coast near Vancouver Island by Sunday, pushing bands of rain into our area. So, the “official” Father’s Day forecast is for a cloudy, rainy day Sunday, the high near 58, then we transition over to showers Sunday night, lows near 45.

By Monday, the low will have dropped down to the Oregon/Washington border so we will still be seeing showers, the afternoon high only near 57, the low that night near 46.

It looks like the low pushes across northern Oregon into Idaho Tuesday so we should be seeing decreasing showers activity with only a slight chance of any showers by Tuesday night, the high near 59, lows near 48.

By Wednesday we see partly sunny skies with a slight chance of a shower, the high back up to near 63.

Because of the humor, I have to share a paragraph from the Portland National Weather Service Forecast Discussion:

“Now who had `snow in June` on their BINGO card? If you did, mark that one off. Snow is forecast along the Cascades above pass level – the `tippy tops of the mountains` if you will. Lower elevations though are not at risk. Those who may be climbing or camping this weekend though should prepare for much colder and possibly snowy conditions. Accumulation wise, just looking at a few inches.”
