<div style="padding-left: 36pt; ">The upper low that has been plaguing the Pacific Northwest the past few days weakens and moves east but upper troughiness remains over the region on Thursday. There will be a slight chance of mainly afternoon showers. Temperatures
continue below average for the time of year. Afternoon mixing heights should push high enough for good smoke dispersal conditions. </div>

<div style="padding-left: 36pt; ">A broad trough remains over the region throughout the outlook period. There will be a slight chance of mainly afternoon showers each day throughout the outlook period – lowest chance on Friday, highest chance on Saturday.
Temperatures continue below average for the time of year. None the less, there should be enough sunshine to warm surface temperatures enough that, combined with the cool air aloft, mixing heights will be pushed high enough during the afternoon for good smoke
dispersal conditions. </div>
