Meet your forecaster: Temira

For almost 30 years, Temira (they/them) has been making the most of the Gorge: riding river swell, shredding powder, and cycling all the gravel and pavement and trails. This is Temira’s playground, their gym… their life’s work.

This passion led Temira to take a vow: In 2006, Temira decided to provide the most accurate, hyper-local weather forecasts possible. Today, Temira’s forecasts have become an essential resource for thousands of skiers, snowboarders, wind sports enthusiasts and Gorge commuters. With Temira’s guidance, you can plan ahead, time your sessions perfectly, and just plain have more fun! But the story doesn’t end there.

There’s “Temira’s Awesome Travel Advisory Service” and “Valuable Advice for Gardeners Inhabiting Neighboring Areas” – the Gorge’s premier microclimate forecast and gardening information. When winter storms, extreme heat, hail, or avalanches on SR-14 and I-84 threaten, TATAS keeps everyone and their tomatoes and giant pumpkins and cash crops safe.

Temira’s relentless efforts keep the forecasts flowing. But it ain’t easy: each forecast takes a couple of hours. That’s where you come in. By contributing, you’re not just supporting Temira’s passion project – you’re investing in the safety and well-being of the entire Gorge community. Your financial support ensures these essential forecasts remain accessible to all, free of charge.

So please take a moment to click one of the buttons below. Donate $19.99 or more (how much does this forecast enhance your life?) and get the email in your inbox. Or just contribute enough for a cup or pound of coffee. I need coffee! Every contribution, no matter the amount, makes a difference. Help me keep this labor of love alive, so we can all commute safely, play in the river, and shred Mt. Hood with the best weather forecasts possible. Thank you!

Good morning!

The Moth Radio Hour live in Portland was pretty much awesome last night.

Today’s mountain weather forecast is short of amazing, but it’s not bad by any means. We’ll see another nice day today, with partly cloudy skies to start and increasing clouds later, with a few scattered snow flurries. Total accumulation will be less than 1” with snow levels at 1000’ or less. Winds today will start at W 5-15, going to light and variable later.

Tomorrow looks partly cloudy to sunny and cold, with the free air freezing level around 500’. Winds tomorrow will be E 15-25 early, fading to E 10-15 by 4pm. No snow accumulation is expected.

Sunday starts off partly cloudy, quickly becoming cloudy with snow flurries starting around 1pm. Total accumulation will be .25” of water value or less, for 1-2” of new between 1pm and 4am Monday. Winds Sunday will be W 15-20 all day.

Monday looks relatively dry, with mostly cloudy skies and occasional snow flurries and light wind.

The next significant snow event should start Tuesday afternoon, continuing into Wednesday.

Don’t forget about the fundraiser at Everybody’s Brewing on Sunday night starting at 6pm. The Meadows avy dogs need your help. Come drink beer and get in on the raffle for some awesome prizes, including a season pass to Mt. Hood Meadows!

Have an awesome day today!
