5/25 Forecast

Good morning! It’s looking like a couple of light wind days in the Gorge, and that means that every upcoming event gets to use the report as a venue. Actually, we’ll probably see some west winds in the corridor in the 15-19 range tomorrow afternoon, but that’s about it for today, tomorrow and Thursday. So,…

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!

It’s looking like a couple of light wind days in the Gorge, and that means that every upcoming event gets to use the report as a venue. Actually, we’ll probably see some west winds in the corridor in the 15-19 range tomorrow afternoon, but that’s about it for today, tomorrow and Thursday.

So, first, there’s a call for volunteers for the Mt. Hood Cycling Classic. You know you love this race, and you know you want it to succeed. So, drop a note to [email protected] and let Julie know you want to help make the race a success.

If you want to go ride your bike today, the dirt is in near-perfect shape. If you want to ride, go before those yellow and green echoes on the radar image get here!

On Thursday, instead of the Post and Pint, Dirty Fingers is running a shuttle up to the top of the course. If you’re not interested in riding, but you’d like to help out a bunch of bikers, Mitchell’s looking for shuttle drivers. Volunteer, and you’ll be rewarded with a t-shirt and beverages. Give Dirty Fingers a call to offer your services.

Tomorrow is the Hood River Yacht Club’s Wednesday night race. If you’re an experienced sailor and you show up, you’ll likely end up with a spot on a boat… and just enough wind to fill the spinnaker

Boaters, my only confirmed numbers today are the Hood at 3.8 feet, and the White Salmon at 3.45 feet.

Have a great day today!

Temira
