A sharp November temperature swing is taking shape across eastern Oregon, with Pendleton heading from a pleasant 68 degrees toward chilly mornings near 37.
Rain chances, patchy fog and changing visibility could complicate travel across Umatilla County as the new workweek approaches.
According to the National Weather Service in Pendleton, temperatures will drop approximately 31 degrees between Saturday afternoon and early Monday.
The changing pattern brings several opportunities for showers through Tuesday, November 10.
Sunday Brings Cooler Weather and Rain Chances Saturday offers a comfortable start to the weekend, with mostly sunny skies and temperatures reaching approximately 68 degrees.
However, clouds begin increasing Saturday evening as another Pacific weather system approaches.
Showers become possible after 4 a.m. Sunday, with precipitation chances reaching 30%.
Southeast winds of 7 to 11 mph could produce gusts approaching 18 mph before midnight.
By Sunday morning, temperatures begin a noticeable retreat.

A 30% chance of showers continues before 7 a.m., followed by mostly cloudy conditions.
