National Weather Service Spokane WA
304 PM PDT Thu Sep 19 2024


.DISCUSSION...

Breezy west winds this evening will shift to the north to
northwest overnight into Friday. Precipitation chances return
across the mountains Sunday into Monday. Temperatures will begin
to trend warmer Monday into the middle of next week under a ridge
of high pressure. Flattening of the ridge around the middle to end
of the work week will bring the potential for breezy west winds
with dry conditions.

Forecasts for 20 foot wind speeds (valleys and ridge tops) are
10 minute averages reflecting RAWS wind.
