This would be nice... Saturday: Increasing easterly flow. Thermal trough starts to sneak northward up the I-5 Corridor causing valley temps to quickly jump into the 80's. This should be enough to trigger easterlies to reaching mid 20's to low 30's for Rooster Rock to Stevenson in the late morning to early afternoon. The Corridor pretty light with sub to low teen easterlies. Celilo to Rufus reaching eastelies in the mid to upper teens in the mid afternoon. If not, it can start snowing!
