Freezing temperatures are expected along the immediate southern Oregon coast from Port Orford northward to Reedsport Monday (2/10) and Tuesday (1/28) mornings. Frost and cold temperatures can kill sensitive outdoor vegetation. Take steps now to protect pets, plants and pipes from the cold and do not leave running cars unattended.
Frigid temperatures will continue through Wednesday morning. Very cold low temperatures are expected with values in the single digits/below zero degrees expected east of the Cascades and teens/low 20s for areas west of the Cascades. Be sure to dress appropriately and keep pets inside as much as possible. If venturing outside, cover exposed skin to avoid frostbite and hypothermia while exposed to these temperatures.
Very cold temperatures will continue to affect the area through Wednesday morning. Be sure to dress appropriately and keep pets inside as much as possible. If venturing outside, cover exposed skin to avoid frostbite and hypothermia while exposed to these temperatures.
Dry and very cold conditions will prevail through Wednesday morning, with active weather returning late Wednesday night. The first system will bring gusty winds and another round of rain/snow. Snow levels will initially be low, around 1000-1500 ft at the start of precipitation, but should gradually rise to around 3500-4000 by Thursday afternoon. Showers continue Friday into early Saturday with a short break in the weather possible for the day Saturday. Another system arrives late Saturday into early next week, and snow levels should trend higher with this system.
A storm will bring gusty south winds and hazardous seas Wednesday night into Thursday. This storm will be followed by long period WSW swells of 14-17 feet Thursday night into Friday resulting in hazardous breaking waves of 20-24 feet in the surf zone. Waves could wash over rocks/jetties and into normally dry areas. Beach erosion is possible. Please use extra caution if you plan to visit the beaches late this week.
