Washington and Oregon. The center of an embedded upper-level disturbance will
move over southwestern Oregon in the early morning and slowly progress
eastward, to over southeastern Oregon, by evening. Scattered showers are
likely in the morning but should decrease later in the day, as the flow aloft
turns more westerly and air mass begins to stabilize. Cool northwesterly
transport winds will cap high temperatures around 10-15 below normal. Cool air
aloft will yield high mid-afternoon mixing heights, but watch for rapidly
lowering mixing heights in the early evening. Lingering smoke may get trapped
near the ground overnight.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Progressively more sunshine will help temperatures recover to slightly above
normal by Tuesday. Transport winds will decrease Monday and perhaps become
light southerly by Tuesday. A weak upper-level trough will bring increasing
southwesterly flow aloft on Wednesday. Temperatures will cool slightly with an
increasing threat of showers or thunderstorms. Transport winds will turn
onshore late in the day. High afternoon mixing heights are expected during the
outlook period.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
