Dense Freezing Fog Lingering, Freezing Drizzle Risk Tonight and Thursday Morning

Hi there! Here’s a look at your weather in the coming days. Let’s break it down:

Tonight and Thursday Morning:

  • What to Expect:
    A thick blanket of stratus clouds covers the Columbia Basin and surrounding areas, trapping cold air and keeping temperatures just above freezing for most locations under the cloud layer. Higher elevations (above 3,500 feet), however, are basking in sunshine with temperatures in the mid-30s to mid-40s.

    • Freezing Fog Alert: A Freezing Fog Advisory remains in effect for central and north-central Oregon and the southern Blue Mountain foothills until Thursday morning. After some improvement in visibility earlier today, expect the dense freezing fog to make a comeback tonight.
    • Slick Spots: Light freezing drizzle and occasional snow flurries might occur under the fog, creating some slippery sidewalks and roads. It’s nothing major but worth noting for your early morning plans.
