Morning Fog, Mild Temperatures and Limited Rain Chances Expected in Roseburg This Week
Roseburg will see morning fog, mostly cloudy skies and mild temperatures this week, with highs ranging from 60 to 67 degrees. Rain chances remain limited, although forecasters are watching for wetter weather during the second week of November.
ROSEBURG, Ore. - November is beginning with a relatively quiet stretch of weather across Roseburg and the Umpqua Valley. Morning fog, mostly cloudy skies and mild afternoon temperatures are expected throughout the week, with only a few opportunities for light rain.
According to the National Weather Service in Medford, several weather systems will move through the Pacific Northwest over the coming days. However, most of the moisture is expected to remain north of Southern Oregon, keeping rainfall amounts limited across the Roseburg area.
Fog and Clouds to Start the Week
Roseburg began Monday morning with low clouds and fog settling into the Umpqua Valley. The National Weather Service reported reduced visibility around the Roseburg Regional Airport early Monday, with conditions expected to improve as the morning progresses.
Patchy frost is also possible before 7 a.m., particularly in colder locations around the valley.
Fog should begin clearing by approximately 9 a.m., giving way to mostly cloudy skies and an afternoon high near 60 degrees. Winds are expected to remain calm.
Monday night will bring another round of mostly cloudy skies, with temperatures falling to around 41 degrees. Forecasters say fog could develop again overnight as moisture remains trapped in the valley.
Mostly Dry Conditions Through Tuesday
Tuesday is expected to remain relatively mild, with cloudy skies early in the day gradually clearing by the afternoon. Temperatures should reach approximately 61 degrees in Roseburg, with calm winds.
A weak weather system moving into Northern California will increase rain chances across portions of the region Tuesday. However, the National Weather Service expects Southern Oregon to see only a 10 to 20 percent chance of precipitation from that system.
Tuesday night will be partly cloudy, with temperatures dropping to around 40 degrees.
Small Chance of Rain Midweek
Wednesday will bring another mild afternoon, with temperatures reaching approximately 63 degrees.
Mostly cloudy skies are expected, along with a 30 percent chance of rain after 4 p.m. Light and variable winds should continue throughout the day.
A weakening cold front is forecast to approach the Oregon coast Wednesday night. While coastal communities have a 40 to 60 percent chance of precipitation, the likelihood of rain decreases farther inland.
Roseburg has a 30 percent chance of rain Wednesday night, mainly before 10 p.m., with overnight temperatures around 44 degrees.
Thursday should bring partly sunny skies and another high near 63 degrees. A slight chance of rain returns late Thursday night and into Friday morning, although widespread or significant rainfall is not expected.
Warmer Temperatures Expected Saturday
Temperatures are expected to climb slightly heading into the weekend.
Friday will remain mostly cloudy, with a high near 62 degrees and a slight chance of morning rain.
Saturday is currently shaping up to be one of the nicer days of the week, with partly sunny skies and temperatures reaching approximately 67 degrees in Roseburg.

Wetter Weather Could Arrive Next Week
While the immediate forecast remains relatively dry, the National Weather Service is watching for a possible change in the weather pattern during the second week of November.
Long-range forecast models suggest that the November 8–15 period could bring increased precipitation across Southern Oregon.
Forecasters say most ensemble model projections are trending toward wetter conditions, including the possibility of heavier rainfall. However, some projections continue to show a much drier pattern, leaving uncertainty about how much rain the region might receive.
For now, the biggest weather concern around Roseburg will likely be areas of morning valley fog, which could reduce visibility for drivers during the early commute.
Residents can expect a generally mild first week of November, with temperatures near seasonal averages and little indication of significant weather disruptions.
