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.

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!

Friday
Saturday
Sunday

Good morning,

It’s going to be a lovely day up here on Mt. Hood. There are just a few low clouds lingering around 5000’, and it’s clear skies above. We’ll see partly cloudy skies with a few flurries possible today, especially in the afternoon. The snow level will be around 1000’ this morning, rising a bit in the afternoon with the strong March sun. Wind will be NW 10-15 early, W 10 midday and SW 10 in the evening. No significant precip.

Tomorrow looks clear and sunny. The freezing level will be 1500’ early, 5000’ around 8am and 4000’ in the afternoon. Wind will be S 15-20 early, SE 20 midday and SW 15-20 in the afternoon.

Sunday starts off cloudy, with a few flurries during the day, becoming partly cloudy late. The snow level will be 6000’ at 2am, 4500’ mid-morning and 6000’ from 11am through the rest of the day. Yeah, I know it’s borderline, but let’s just stick with wet snow and call it good. Wind will be S/SE 20-30 early and SW 20-25 for the rest of the day.

Monday brings more flurries with the snow level at 4500’ and SW wind at 15-20.

The Gorge wind situation is 15-18 today from Hood River eastward, east 30 near Stevenson and Rooster on Saturday, and no wind on Sunday and Monday.

Events include the King and Queen of the Mountain at Skibowl on Saturday and a CGORA dirt bike ride / trail cleanup party at Pine Mont on Sunday.

Have a great day today!
