NOAA Current Watches-OR

* WHAT...West winds 25 to 35 mph with gusts up to 55 mph expected. * WHERE...Foothills of the Blue Mountains of Oregon and Washington, Eastern Columbia River Gorge of Oregon and Washington, Lower Columbia Basin of Oregon and Washington, Kittitas Valley, Yakima Valley, and Simcoe Highlands. * WHEN...From 8 AM to 11 PM PDT Monday. * IMPACTS...Gusty winds will blow around unsecured objects. Tree limbs could be blown down and a few power outages may result.

ESFBOI Synopsis: An atmospheric river in the Pacific is bringing abundant moisture to the region. Storm total rainfall amounts in the Outlook area range from 1" in valleys to 2" on ridges. Rainfall amounts underestimate flood potential as snowpack melt will add snow-water equivalent contributions of around 2". Where: Elkhorn and Wallowa Mountains in Oregon. Adams, Washington, northern Gem, Valley, Boise, and northern Elmore counties in Idaho. When: Rainfall beginning Sunday evening and ending Monday evening. Rain will expand from NW to SE in the first few hours. What: Moderate rainfall leading to rises in creeks, streams, rivers, and lakes. Rainfall could be locally heavy Monday morning and Monday afternoon/evening as terrain driven storms become more likely leading to potential for minor flooding. Potential for mud or rockslides. The next update will be provided Sunday afternoon. Continue to monitor the latest forecasts and river forecasts from the National Weather Service.

* WHAT...Southwest winds 20 to 30 mph with gusts up to 50 mph expected. * WHERE...Portions of Lake County including portions of US Highway 391, the Winter Rim and Oregon Highway 31 from Silver Lake to Paisley, and portions of Oregon Highway 140 east of Adel. * WHEN...From 11 PM Sunday to 5 PM PDT Monday. * IMPACTS...Gusty winds will blow around unsecured objects. Tree limbs could be blown down and a few power outages may result. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Gusty winds will begin Sunday evening around 11 PM and briefly diminish overnight before becoming gusty again Monday morning.

ESFPDT Synopsis: An atmospheric river will bring abundant moisture to the region with an incoming system Sunday through Monday. Rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches are expected along the Oregon and Washington Cascade crest and in the higher mountains of northeast Oregon and southeast Washington. These amounts may be increased locally by 1 to 2 inches of snow melt from what remains of the high mountain snowpack. Where: The East Slopes of the Washington and Oregon Cascades, The Northern and Southern Blue Mountains, The Blue Mountain Foothills of Washington and Oregon, Wallowa County and the Grande Ronde Valley. When: Rain will arrive along the Cascades early Sunday morning and in the eastern mountains late Sunday morning and afternoon. Rain will taper off Monday afternoon and evening. What: The precipitation and possible snow melt will lead to rises on area creeks, streams and rivers. Rivers are low enough that only the Naches River at Cliffdell and the Naches River at Naches are expected to reach bankfull Monday and only by a few inches at those locations. However, with the heavier periods of rain rapid rises will be possible on smaller streams and creeks, especially in Wallowa County and this is the main concern for the next couple of days. An update will be provided Sunday morning.
