“I roll out of bed and look at Temira’s forecast to know what activity I should do with my day. Dirt, wind, snow? What should I do? Temira knows fun. Temira lets me know. The go-to wind forecast, not just for me, but for all of us at Big Winds. Temira is spot-on. The most accurate forecast in the Gorge. Period.”
Erica and Pepi Gerald smiling happily on a sunny day in a snowy location.
“TheGorgeIsMyGym is the most recommended site among our customers. When someone at Pure Stoke Sports® asks our staff about weather, another customer inevitably jumps in and recommends Temira’s reports. If we ever had the chance to speak up first, we’d do the same. We rely on Temira’s forecast to plan our play. You should too!.”

“I have two distinct companies that are 100% dependent on accurate forecasts: wildland firefighting and snow removal. The only person I trust for Gorge weather is Temira. From when the snow will hit or how much wind a fire can expect during the day, Temira’s knowledge of local weather is what I trust.”

“While I’m suiting up for TV (and maybe slathering makeup on this ol’ face), Temira keeps a close eye on JUST the Gorge and mountains; that means YOU get more detail than I can give. Temira has you covered like no one else in the Gorge and sure has my endorsement. Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed!”

“Most of you depend on Temira’s forecast to optimize your recreation. I use it to fight litter by keeping my garbage can from blowing away. My trash bin never goes outside before I consult with Temira. TATAS is the best for keeping the Gorge clean and keeping my can where it belongs. All the other forecasts are rubbish. Use TATAS. I do.”

“After pouring over 40 windows of data every morning, I have a dang good idea of what I should do on any given day. What, you thought I looked at someone else’s forecast?!?! No! I run my life by my forecast. If I trust it, you should trust it too. I’m here to help you have the most fun on the water, on the snow, or on the dirt any given day.”

Why Temira’s Forecast?

For almost 30 years, Temira (they/them) has been making the most of what the Gorge has to offer: riding river swell, carving fresh lines through the snow, and cycling all the gravel and pavement and trails. This is Temira’s playground, their gym… their life’s work.

That’s why in 2006, Temira took it upon themselves to create the most accurate, hyper-local weather forecasts possible. Inaccurate predictions had led to too much wasted time for too many people. Temira was determined to change that. Today, Temira’s forecasts have become the go-to resource for thousands of skiers, snowboarders, wind sports enthusiasts and Gorge commuters. With Temira’s guidance, you can plan ahead and time your play perfectly.

But the story doesn’t end there. Temira also authors the TATAS Facebook page – the Gorge’s premier source for microclimate forecasts. When winter storms, extreme heat, or other hazardous conditions (avalanches on SR-14 and I-84, for example!) threaten, this community lifeline becomes a vital resource for locals and visitors alike, helping to keep everyone safe.
