LONG TERM
Once this low passes through, we'll see troughing in the northern Rockies with deeper north west flow off the Pacific for the Pacific Northwest. This will keep things on the cooler side with some showers developing Tuesday evening as another short wave moves through the area. A thermal trough will likely set up behind this very deep trough around Thursday or Friday of next week and push temperatures higher. Heading towards next weekend, 500 mb heights begin to build and move into the 97.5th percentile by Saturday night. Therefore, we'll likely be pushing 100 here in Medford. The NBM only has a 35% chance of surpassing triple digits at KMFR.
AVIATION...06/12Z TAFS
The coast and Umpqua Basin are seeing spots of scattered MVFR at times this morning, and the Rogue Valley into Medford has the lowest VFR ceilings as of now. However, VFR conditions are expected to prevail through the TAF period. A cold front is starting to bring light showers to the coast and Douglas County, and this will continue through the early afternoon. Periods of gusty winds will come this afternoon and evening for Medford and Klamath Falls terminals. -Hermansen
MARINE...Updated 430 AM PDT Saturday, June 6, 2026
North winds and seas will increase this afternoon into Sunday morning, especially south of Gold Beach. Steep seas will also be found in the outer waters towards Florence. South winds will accompany a front Sunday night into Monday, along with a chance of rain. Then, light to moderate north winds return Tuesday and Wednesday. A thermal trough will likely bring marine hazards next week as stronger north winds and steep to very steep seas build Thursday into next weekend.
