.DISCUSSION...
...HEAT WAVE ARRIVES THIS WEEKEND AND PERSIST WELL INTO NEXT
WEEK...
Warm, dry, and gusty west winds up to 25 mph will develop in the
Cascade gaps and Waterville Plateau in the latter half of Friday
afternoon. Confidence is growing that near record heat will occur
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday along with low daytime
relative humidity and poor overnight recoveries. We will be
keeping a close eye on how the hot ridge will break down. At this
time, the forecast models suggest a gradual moderation of
temperatures in the July 13 to 17 time frame.
