Bottom line...the pattern we've seen so far this week is still with us.....a drier northwesterly flow develops on Friday....with a late day clearing trend. Sunshine will be limited to Saturday morning as the next system should bring more rain late in the day thru the overnight hours....lingering into Sunday morning. Snow has been falling in the Cascades...the hiking season seems to be over there...and I dont find a period of warm...Indian Summer type weather for any part of the region even 10 days out.
