could be closer to 25-35 mph. A decent amount of rain is also expected with this system which, combined with gusty winds, could lead to downed trees. Winds expected to be strongest along the coast and along higher terrain. Remember to prepare for hazardous weather ahead of time.

Freezing rain is forecast across northwest OR and southwest WA starting late tomorrow morning, with ice accumulations between 0.10 - 0.50 inch. ⚠️ Prepare for additional tree damage/power outages. Ice will make for EXTREMELY dangerous travel conditions. #ORwx #WAwx

High temperatures are forecasted for the Pacific NW. The cool, wet spring brought an abundance of vegetation growth. Now this hot weather means forests are rapidly drying, turning into fuel. Please do your part by being a wildfire safety champion!

We do have some potential good news to share. La Nina is building, increasing the chances for a wetter winter with average to above average snow pack. Lots of other factors still in play, so it's too early to tell exactly what will happen. Info at climate.gov/news-features/bl…

There will be a sneaker wave chance during the day on Saturday. Sneaker waves can catch you off guard & quickly pull you into the ocean. Avoid steep beaches, rocks & jetties. Beware of hazards like logs both in & out of the ocean. Sneaker Waves+Hazards=Danger. #orcoast #wacoast

Heavy rain is resulting in wet road conditions, and we have received a couple of reports of vehicles hydroplaning this morning. When driving in heavy rain, slow down, and avoid hard braking & sharp turns. #orwx #wawx #heavyrain

25 to 30 foot breakers on the coast today. These are large, powerful waves. Stay off jetties, rocks, and a safe distance from the surf on beaches. #orwx #wawx
