Oregon – Moist air hangs low over the Willamette Valley as mist beads on windshields and sidewalks darken with fresh rain. The morning feels damp and quiet, with visibility reduced and streets slick under steady gray skies.
The National Weather Service reports rain spreading across Eugene through the morning hours, with mist and low clouds lingering early. Temperatures hover in the mid-30s at daybreak, rising into the mid-50s this afternoon. Roads may remain slick on I-5, Highway 99, and surface streets during peak travel times.
Rain continues into Sunday, especially during the morning and early afternoon. While rainfall amounts stay light, repeated showers keep pavement wet and visibility inconsistent. Drivers should expect spray from vehicles and slower traffic during heavier bursts. Plan extra time if traveling early, and keep headlights on in misty conditions.
By Sunday night, rain tapers to scattered showers. Monday brings gradual improvement, with clouds breaking at times and highs near the mid-50s. Conditions stay cool overnight, dipping into the upper 30s, which may allow fog to reform in sheltered valleys.
Tuesday marks a noticeable shift. Skies turn partly sunny, and highs approach 60 degrees. Wednesday continues the brighter trend, with afternoon sunshine and highs near the low 60s. Midweek travel conditions improve significantly, offering a welcome pause from persistent winter moisture.
Nationally, winter remains locked in across the Midwest and East. Nearly half of the Great Lakes are frozen, reinforcing Arctic air and active storm tracks. That pattern keeps the Pacific Northwest mild but frequently wet as February gets underway.
For now, expect changing conditions through the day. Slow down on wet roads, watch for reduced visibility, and prepare for quick shifts in rainfall intensity.
