...WET THUNDERSTORMS TODAY AND TUESDAY...
.DISCUSSION...A low-pressure system over the Pacific Northwest
will facilitate a 20-40% chance of thunderstorms over the eastern
mountains and Cascade east slopes with lower (10-25%) chances
along the Blue Mountain foothills through this evening. Shower
and thunderstorm activity will become more isolated for the
aforementioned areas Tuesday afternoon as the low departs to the
east.
***Winds are 20 foot 10 minute averages***
***CWR-chance of wetting rain 0.10 or greater***
***Ventilation Index is derived from the
transport wind multiplied by the mixing
height in 100`s of feet. Index categories
are a generalized indicator and users are
encourage to develop criteria that are
suitable and representative of dispersion
conditions in their local area of interest.***
Note: Max transport winds may not occur
at the same time as max mixing height.
