.SYNOPSIS...
Friday will be breezy in central Washington, raising fire
weather concerns. Temperatures will warm into the mid to high
90s by Sunday with widespread Moderate HeatRisk Saturday through
Monday.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Today through Monday: Dry and breezy today as a wave passes through
Canada strengthening surface pressure gradients. Fire danger is
currently elevated especially in central WA with RHs in the low 20s
and winds gusting up to 30 mph. Temperatures continue to creep
upward into the mid 80s and 90s Saturday as the ridge axis
propagates east closer to the coast. By Monday the ridge is ashore
signaling the peak in temperatures. Temperatures Sunday will be in
the high 80s to high 90s with a small chance (20%) of hitting 100F
in the lower Columbia Basin. Temperatures Monday will be in the 90s
to low 100s. Chances of hitting 100F: Lewiston: 95%, Wenatchee: 80%,
Moses Lake: 85%, Omak: 60%, Downtown Spokane: 15%.

Tuesday through Friday: Tuesday starts the beginning of the cooldown
with the ridge slowly breaking down. With that comes elevated fire
danger, especially in central Washington. It is looking like a dry
and breezy day with gusts up to 30 mph in the Cascade gaps.
Wednesday looks even more breezy in central WA with potential for 40
mph gusts. Potential impulses could bring some beneficial light
rains in the mountains and much cooler temperatures for the latter
half of next week. DB
