PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Light showers this morning. Temperatures slightly cooler, upper 40s. Colder air aloft could spell instability later today. We may see pockets of downpours cruise through this afternoon. It will be windy through the gorge, westerly wind gusts up to 35-40 mph possible.
Eastern Oregon pulled in 2-3 inches of rain in a 24 hour period. Flood Warning: Eastern Oregon through 9 a.m. Thursday. See TripCheck.com for road closures. Some roads are still under repair from the last washout in February.
There are multiple flood warnings for specific sections of rivers: John Day, Grande Ronde, and Umatilla rivers, some last through the weekend. You may recall Umatilla River flooded in Pendleton as recently as February. Here we go again.
