Atmospheric river moving on shore, Willamette Pass to see first snow
An atmospheric river is forecast to reach Oregon Nov. 13 and 14. Much of the deluge is predicted to land south of Eugene-Springfield and Florence, pummeling coastal cities from Reedsport to the Oregon-California border and thrashing Jackson, Klamath and Lake counties with high winds. The Willamette Valley is still expected to get rain and gusty winds as the ribbon of moisture moves on shore. Eugene is now forecast to see 0.31 inches of rain on Nov. 13 and Nov. 14 will likely be dry. Wind gusts are forecast to reach a maximum of 23 mph both days. The Willamette Pass is forecast to see some of the first snow of the season. NWS forecasts the pass will see 0.5 inches of snow on the night of Nov. 13 and another 0.4 inches the evening of Nov. 14.

Oregon lands one of nation's top high school distance runners ahead of schedule
One of the nation's top high school distance runners is moving on to the collegiate level ahead of schedule. Ellery Lincoln, a senior at Lincoln High School in Portland, Oregon , will graduate early and enroll at the University of Oregon in January, forgoing her final high school track and field season to compete for the Ducks during the 2026-27 indoor campaign. The news was first reported by DyeStat, and later reported by the Eugene Register-Guard, part of the USA TODAY Network . "I just wanna say that there's a lot of thought put into this decision and the people around me wouldn't let me make a self-destructive choice," Lincoln told DyeStat. "And I've got a lot of people in my corner helping support me through this transition and I feel very confident about where I'm going." The decision comes after Lincoln capped her high school cross-country career with a second consecutive OSAA Class 6A state championship last weekend. She won in a course-record 16 minutes, 57.6 seconds at Lane Community College. Lincoln has established herself as one of the most accomplished distance runners in Oregon high school history. She owns state records in the 1,500 meters (4:07.06), mile (4:27.65)
