...DRY THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED TODAY AND WEDNESDAY OVER CENTRAL AND EASTERN OREGON, WITH DRY AND WINDY CONDITIONS ACROSS THE COLUMBIA BASIN WEDNESDAY... .The ridge of high pressure currently in place over the Pacific Northwest will break down tonight through Wednesday as a pair of upper-level low-pressure systems pass over the region.

Widespread breezy to windy conditions will persist this evening through Wednesday, strongest through the Cascade gaps and Columbia Basin on Wednesday with a frontal passage. * AFFECTED AREA...Fire Weather Zones 696 John Day Valley, 700 Central Mountains of Oregon and 705 Southern Deschutes National Forest. * TIMING...Until 11 PM PDT this evening. * IMPACTS...Any fire that develops will catch and spread quickly.
