High pressure holds offshore on Wednesday. Models suggest westerlies at 10-13 in the west and 18-22 from The Dalles eastward. Given the strength of the Pacific High, 1035mb, the wind will likely beat the forecasts. Let’s call it showery 13-16 in the west and sunny 21-25 east of The Dalles. High temp: 61.
Inland high pressure takes over on Thursday. East wind returns, but possibly just for a day. Expect max easterlies at 20-25 from Rooster to Stevenson late morning through early afternoon. As of right now, Friday looks to start with easterlies and switch to mid-20’s westerlies as offshore high pressure rebuilds. After that: lots of disagreement in the models.
