Oregon residents in the Pendleton and Eugene areas should prepare for a weekend of rain and fog, with potential travel hazards beginning Saturday and extending through Veterans Day on Monday. Freezing fog early Saturday morning may create slick conditions across highways, especially around Pendleton, where temperatures are forecasted to dip to 32 degrees. If you’re heading out early, consider extra time for visibility and road conditions.
According to the National Weather Service, Saturday’s forecast in Pendleton predicts mostly cloudy skies, with a high near 57 degrees, and a chance of rain in the evening. The fog is expected to clear by late morning, but calm winds and a 40% chance of rain could impact evening plans. For Eugene, Saturday brings similar weather, with rain likely after 4 p.m. and continuing through the night. Expect a high near 59 in the Eugene area, with calm winds shifting to a mild south breeze in the afternoon.
Veterans Day on Monday will see widespread rain in both regions, with Pendleton’s temperatures reaching 58 degrees and Eugene expecting highs near 54. The rain, combined with potentially low visibility, may make travel tricky for those attending Veterans Day events. Showers will continue into the night, bringing a 60% chance of rain into Tuesday.
Looking further into the week, the rain is expected to persist, with highs in the mid-50s through Tuesday across the region. Local authorities are advising caution on roads, especially in foggy and rainy conditions. Oregon drivers should stay updated on weather forecasts for potential advisories and be prepared for slower traffic and potential delays.
