<div>1. DISCUSSION AND FORECAST FOR NORTHEAST FORECAST AREA ZONES 630-638</div>
<div> </div>
<div style="padding-left: 36pt; ">Upper air forecast charts show a low continuing off the coast of California on Tuesday. Counter-clockwise flow around that low will again bring moisture northward for areas of afternoon and evening thunderstorms. Low level
flow will be generally north-northwest to north-northeast. Mixing heights will be high and smoke dispersal conditions should be good. </div>
<div style="padding-left: 36pt; "> </div>
<div> OUTLOOK (WEDNESDAY-FRIDAY)</div>
<div> </div>
<div style="padding-left: 36pt; ">The upper level low moves a little closer to the California coastline Wednesday but the net change on Oregon will be nil. Continued moisture and afternoon heating will pop thunderstorms again on Wednesday. Low level winds
will be generally northerly and smoke dispersal conditions will remain good. On Thursday the upper low will move slightly south and upper flow over Oregon will begin to transition to northeasterly. Thunderstorms will continue, but northern sections will be
less vulnerable. Transport winds will be variable. The low moves to central California by Friday but thunderstorms will continue.</div>
