The National Weather Service in Portland has issued a High Wind Warning... which is in effect from midnight tonight to 10 am PST Tuesday morning. The high wind watch is no longer in effect.
Disturbances moving along a nearly stalled frontal boundary offshore will allow south winds to pick up at times tonight and Monday. The first round of stronger winds will arrive later tonight... with another round expected early Monday afternoon.
Later this evening... south winds will strengthen to 25 to 40 mph... with 35 to 45 mph on the open beaches and headlands. Winds gusts of 50 to 60 mph are expected tonight and Monday... with gusts of 65 to 80 mph on the open beaches and headlands.
The strongest winds will strike the north Oregon and South Washington coast Monday night. A very deep low pressure system will develop offshore late Monday... and pass offshore of the north Oregon coast Monday evening as it moves towards British Columbia. The associated cold front will move onshore late Monday night. Expect south winds to increase again Monday evening... with sustained south winds of 40 to 50 mph... and gusts of 65 to 80 mph.
