Light Rain Monday Before Roseburg Warms Into the 90s by Saturday

Roseburg will start the week with rain before a steady warming trend brings sunshine and temperatures into the 90s by next weekend.

The National Weather Service in Medford said high clouds were moving into southern Oregon Sunday afternoon ahead of a warm front and incoming low-pressure system. The added cloud cover is expected to keep overnight temperatures warmer than recent nights.

Rain is expected in Roseburg on Monday, with a high near 64. New rainfall amounts between a tenth and a quarter of an inch are possible. Rain is expected to continue Monday night before transitioning to showers, mainly between 1 a.m. and 4 a.m., with a low around 53.

Forecasters said some instability may develop Monday night into Tuesday morning near Roseburg. However, any showers that form are expected to remain light and shallow.

Showers remain possible Tuesday morning before conditions begin to dry out. Tuesday’s high is expected to reach near 69, followed by partly cloudy skies Tuesday night and a low around 47.

Warmer and drier weather is expected to take over by midweek. Roseburg is forecast to reach near 76 on Wednesday, 83 on Thursday and 87 on Friday, with sunny skies each day.

By Saturday, the forecast calls for sunny skies and a high near 94 in Roseburg.

Looking ahead to next weekend, forecasters are watching the potential for an upper-level disturbance to slide down the Cascades Saturday or Sunday. The National Weather Service said that scenario has about a 30% chance of occurring. Other forecast solutions show a stronger ridge building over the region, which would push temperatures higher west of the Cascades.

For Roseburg, the main takeaway is a wet start to the week, followed by a quick warmup and increasing heat and fire weather concerns by next weekend.
