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,

First off, please help me out today. Go to this link, scroll over the photo, and click the green thumbs up. It has to happen today. I just found out. Thank you!

Oh wow what a day it’ll be! Everyone enjoy the gorgeous weather today. It’s going to be a perfect day to get out on a bike. Or work in the garden. Last frost day for Hood River proper was April 20th, and I’m not seeing any frost in the next week, at least at city level. I’m going for it with the tomatoes this afternoon.

Don’t tire yourself out too much. Tonight at Columbia Center for the Arts, it’s Andrew Shurka, explorer extraordinaire. You don’t want to miss this one. It’s armchair traveling at its best! 7pm. $10. Well worth it.

In the meantime, there’s the Whoopdee/Post work party this morning. Meet at 8:30am at 10 Speed Roastery. There’s the Trout Lake run, benefiting the Trout Lake School. There’s annual cleanup day at the Discovery Center in The Dalles (this one earns you free lunch and movie tickets). Tomorrow is a CGORA moto ride at Pine Mont, and it’s the annual weeding party at the Hood River Waterfront Park. If you’d like to adopt a plot, there are still some available.

Enough events. Weather. It’s going to be perfect. Warm and sunny. Finally!

On Mt. Hood: The freezing level will be 11,000′ all day, with SW wind at 15-25. Tomorrow: 12,000′, SW wind at 10-15. Monday: 12,000′, SW 10-15, possibly a few showers and/or thunderstorms Monday afternoon into Monday night. Tuesday, partly cloudy, 11,000′ and SW wind at 15-20.

In the Gorge: Today: light east wind. Tomorrow: light east wind. Monday: probably more wind than models predict. West at 10-15 early and 22-26 near Hood River in the afternoon.

Have a great day today!

Temira
