TILLAMOOK COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT: Gordon’s Update – 7/9/21 – Weather & Construction

Posted on July 9, 2021 by Editor

Weather

No surprises and no changes, summer is definitely here.  A high pressure ridge continues to dominate the weather pattern bringing us fair, dry and mild conditions to the area.  The marine clouds pushed in again last night but as has been the case this past week, they will burn of slowly leaving a mostly sunny afternoon. With the highs over in the valley up close to 90, we see the usual afternoon westerly winds 5-10 gusting to 18.  Thank to our natural air conditioner, todays high again near 70.  We will have another trough of low pressure passing to our north tonight that will thicken the marine clouds again here tonight so we can expect increasing clouds, maybe some mist early morning with calm winds, and lows near 54.

Tomorrow pretty much a copy, becoming sunny, west winds 5-10 gusting to 20, highs near 69, not as thick a layer so we may not see the overcast skies tomorrow night, light winds, lows near 53.  Sunday looks nice also, mostly sunny skies during the day, highs near 69, partly cloudy skies Sunday night, lows near 52.

The models show an upper level low pressure system moving into Washington Monday. This system has little to no moisture associated with it so likely the only effect will be to cools things down a couple degrees.  After that, a large low up in the Gulf of Alaska will weaken and flatten the ridge here which gives us a zonal or west to east flow that pretty much keeps us with more of the same, mostly sunny days, highs around 69, partly cloudy nights, lows near 54.
