Warnings and Notices

	Fire Weather Warning
Statement as of 9:25 AM PDT on July 05, 2009 ... Red flag warning in effect from 1 PM this afternoon to 11 am PDT Monday for a combination of winds and low humidities this afternoon followed by thunderstorms producing abundant lightning tonight... The National Weather Service in Pendleton has issued a red flag warning... which is in effect from 1 PM this afternoon to 11 am PDT Monday. The Fire Weather Watch is no longer in effect. A cold front will cross the Oregon Cascades this evening and continue moving northeast across the lower Columbia Basin through the overnight hours into Monday morning. Winds ahead of the front will increase this afternoon and evening to around 10 to 20 mph. The winds in combination with relative humidities ranging from 8 to 15 percent will result in critical fire weather conditions. Scattered thunderstorms will develop tonight with periods of enhanced lightning activity across the lower elevation Grasslands. Rainfall amounts are expected to be relatively light. Precautionary/preparedness actions... A red flag warning means that critical fire weather conditions are either occurring now... or will shortly. A combination of strong winds and low relative humidity will create explosive fire growth potential. For additional weather information... check our web site at www.Weather.Gov/Pendleton.
