WEATHER Region in for a wet and windy week Comment By Ryan Pfeil For the Tidings DailyTidings.com By Ryan Pfeil For the Tidings Posted Feb. 2, 2015 @ 6:56 pm By Ryan Pfeil For the Tidings Posted Feb. 2, 2015 @ 6:56 pm » Social News A steady downpour netted more than half an inch of rain in several parts of Jackson County over the past 24 hours, and the National Weather Service says the intensity could increase later this week. While the weather pattern is expected to produce only showers for the next few days, the agency reported a wet and windy series of storms will hammer much of Southern Oregon — mostly on the coast — Thursday into Saturday, with up to an inch possible for the Rogue Valley over that period. While that's significant in a low-water year, it pales in comparison with what could hit areas to the west. "Here we're going to get the rain, but we're not going to get the heavy amounts," said meteorologist Mike Petrucelli. "The more significant rain concern's going to be along the coastal range." The storm won't do much to help the snowpack, except at high elevations, with freezing levels at 7,000 feet. Mount Ashland's peak is just over 7,500 feet. Strong winds of 40 to 60 mph are expected to be isolated to areas east of the Cascades and the Shasta Valley. Ashland and Talent saw nearly seven-tenths of an inch Sunday night and early Monday morning, based on 24-hour totals recorded by the Weather Service.
