Winds have decreased and relative humidities will gradually rise
overnight as temperatures decrease. Therefore, the red flag
warning will be allowed to expire.
Breezy easterly winds are expected through Friday evening for the
eastern Portland/Vancouver metro and through Friday night for the
Columbia River Gorge and adjacent Cascade ridgetops. Winds will
be strongest on exposed ridgetops where wind gusts will most
likely peak between 25-35 mph. Elsewhere, expect wind gusts
between 15-20 mph, except up to 30 mph in the western Columbia
River Gorge. The breezy east winds will occur simultaneously with
low relative humidity values of 20-30% or less, resulting in
elevated fire weather conditions. Due to recent rains in the
area, larger fuels (such as trees and shrubs) are not dry enough
to cause rapid fire spread, but the hot weather will allow fine
fuels (such as grasses) to dry out quickly, allowing for potential
rapid spread. Use extra caution with potential ignition sources,
especially in grassy areas. Outdoor burning is not recommended.
The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality, and the Lane Regional
Air Protection Agency have continued an Air Quality Advisory, which
is IN EFFECT FROM 10 AM SATURDAY TO 8 PM PDT MONDAY.
An Air Quality Advisory for Ozone remains in effect. High levels of
ozone in the lower atmosphere in the region combined with forecasted
conditions will cause air quality to reach unhealthy levels at times
through Monday evening.
Pollutants can cause burning eyes, runny nose, aggravate heart and
lung diseases, and aggravate other serious health problems. Limit
outdoor activities and keep children indoors. Please follow medical
advice if you have a heart or lung condition.
