According to the National Weather Service, yet another low-pressure system will move in from the north tonight into Thursday bringing snow to most of the area. Snow will arrive from northwest to southeast late tonight/early Thursday morning.
The National Weather Service in Medford has issued a freeze watch… which is in effect from Thursday evening through Friday morning.
- Temperature: overnight lows of 28 to 32 degrees are possible
Thursday night into Friday morning. - Locations include: nearly all of the immediate southern Oregon
coast, including Reedsport, Coos Bay, North Bend, Bandon,
Langlois, Gold Beach, and Brookings. - Impacts: plants sensitive to freezing conditions can be damaged
or killed, if left unprotected. - A freeze watch means sub-freezing temperatures are possible.
These conditions could kill crops and other sensitive vegetation.
Once again, the highest accumulations are likely to occur in the mountains, but also the passes along Interstate 5. A burst of snow during the morning commute could also cause a period of reduced visibility and slippery, snow-covered roads over the west side valleys. So, be prepared for wintry travel conditions and be sure to check road conditions before venturing out.
