Mt. Hood Weather Forecast
It’s a chilly and sunny Thursday afternoon. Light snowfall Thursday night will be the end of the fresh snow until the next system moves in early next Wednesday.

Mountain temps will be in the single digits early and teens later. About 0.1” water value (WV) falls tonight, dropping an inch or so of fresh powder. Wind will be W 15 early, SW 15 in the afternoon, and W 10 overnight.
