FRIDAY, 28-AUG-09, MORNING REPORT
AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE CORE REMAINS STATIONARY OVER THE GREAT BASIN AND THIS WILL GIVE US WARM TEMPERATURES FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS. AN UPPER TROUGH MOVES INTO THE PACNW TODAY AND WILL BRING WITH IT SOME HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS BUT LITTLE IN THE WAY OF ANY REAL MOISTURE. THAT LOW WILL MOVE ON THROUGH OREGON ON SUNDAY WHICH WILL LOWER TEMPERATURES INTO MONDAY. RIGHT NOW, THE REST OF NEXT WEEK LOOKS DRY WITH TEMPERATURES RUNNING AT OR ABOUT NORMAL. THIS COULD CHANGE A BIT BY THE END OF NEXT WEEK, IF WE ARE INFLUENCED BY ANOTHER OFFSHORE TROUGH AND ITS ASSOCIATED MOISTURE. WE WILL HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE.
