Weather update

Robin Rosetta [robin.rosetta@oregonstate.edu]

Rufus at the WxCafe® gives us a dry, warm weekend 

but sultry weather is ahead. Robin

Friday May 8

Now dry, mild-to-warm weekend, with lower than average

 humidity east of the Cascades. Sunday night should bring 

in showers from the west.

Next week continues to trend towards moisture and cooler 

temps early in the week.

The weekend of May 16,17 will be drying out from the system 

noted above. It will take until Sunday for eastern basins to get 

out from under the showers/thunderstorms.

You can tell, there is a shift of timing, but overall, the month of 

May still has the potential for higher humidity - "the muggies" - 

and elevated plant disease pressure.
