~Fall Around the Pacific Northwest~
Exclusive Inland NW Summary Issued: Tuesday, November 10, 2026 @ 9:25pm
WRITTEN BY: Climatologist Bob Lutz
(Summaries will be issued as needed, and updated more frequently during times of active weather conditions)
SHORT-TERM FORECAST
Following our beneficial soaking rains, we'll see a break in the activity on Veterans Day Wednesday & Thursday before more fronts arrive by later Friday. Areas of low clouds and fog can be expected at times, and temperatures by day will remain rather mild through the rest of the workweek, especially in locations that see a little sunshine.
LONG-TERM FORECAST
Unsettled weather will continue through the weekend and into the early portion of next week. Expect rounds of valley rain showers and mountain snow along with the potential for gusty winds at times. Precipitation amounts during this period are more uncertain as a few models show some of the energy weakening before the fronts arrive. In addition, snow levels may lower to below 5k over the weekend as cooler air begins to move into the Northwest. The valley locations should even see temperatures cooling closer to seasonal averages as we move toward the middle of next week. Even so, I still don't see any signs of the first measurable valley snowfall as of this summary. The pattern going into the remainder of next week remains uncertain as some models are forecasting high pressure, while others indicate more unsettled weather.
General Short-Term Model Agreement: GOOD
General Long-Term Model Agreement: FAIR
