Weather Observations for May 25, 2015: taken at 05:00 Hours.

2180 meters      +1, Winds were 20-35 KPH from the NNW
1835 meters      +3, Winds were 10-20 KPH from the WNW
1650 meters      +5, No new snow, Base 60 cm, relative humidity is 100%

  660 meters    +11, Valley Temp, Max Temp Yesterday was +21.0, 0.2 mm recorded on Sun.

   As of 06:00 Hours this am we have overcast skies, light rain and variable visibility.

For the forecast, the slow moving low pressure system will continue to drift Southeast today but will bring mostly cloudy skies and light rain into this morning. We should see unsettled conditions by the afternoon.  The light moist Northwest flow will continue into Tuesday with isolated showers and the chance of thunder showers with convective build up in the afternoons. Unsettled conditions will continue through the week with Thursday now looking like the nicest day of the week as the low exits the area and the high pressure off shore begins to move our way.  The persistent blocking pattern continues to bring much uncertainty to more than a one day forecast.

    Slow low moving into Washington State.

    Low is moving very slowly away from our zone.

    Still bringing mostly cloudy skies to our zone for today with some moisture.

    Low very moist this am.

    Tuesday will also see cloud spinning in our direction.

    Ridge of high pressure will have some influence by Thursday.

    Looking sunny for Thursday.
