Good Tuesday morning to you. Could be a wild weather day along the South Oregon Coast. ODOT has already released several warnings to holiday motorists to be prepared and leave early. We have both reports from ODOT. The weather is suppose to be wild with wind, rain, and snow for higher elevations. We expect highs today in the 40s and overnight lows in the 30s. Definitely rain. Winds out of the Southeast at 20-30 mph, gusts to 40 mph. Steady rain tonight, winds out of the North at 10-20 mph. Overcast on Wednesday. In our news, O&C Timber Lands litigation going counties way. That’s good news for Coos County as we share in the timber receipts. Not as much as Douglas Co., but we get a share. Also, Jordan Cove welcomes FERC’s release of final EIS. For those coughing and wheezing, we have the latest on the Flu in Oregon. Coos Bay City Council meets tonight, Fourth St. work on the agenda, as well as more wastewater work. North Bend City Council also meets tonight, amending text within the City Code on the agenda as well as Planning Commission membership. Remember the Blue Whale that washed ashore in Curry County a few years back? Well, it’s skeleton has been lifted from the bottom of Yaquina Bay by researchers. USCG has a jetty rescue at Newport. Not a good time to go out on the jetties, but some still do. Pedestrian fatal on I-205. Fatal near Sutherlin. Trespass, traffic stop arrest and DUII on the CQPD report. In sports, prep schedules for today for both MHS & NBHS. It’s light as we head towards Thanksgiving. College news, Ducks have an Outland Trophy finalist. Hang on to your hats and umbrellas, it could be a busy weather day! Thanks for reading. Matt
