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 high clouds associated with the upper level low and southerly flow have already started building today. Clouds this early means a pretty good chance of building thunderstorms (nothing too exciting) this afternoon.
If you were hoping for windsurfing or kiting, well, the wind will cooperate with the bike riders today. We’ll see light wind early. In the afternoon, we’ll see increasing clouds and a chance of those thunderstorms, and the wind will pick up to the 17-20 range from Stevenson east to The Dalles.
That low pressure system causing all this trouble with the blue sky crosses the Cascades tomorrow, and we’ll have a windy start. I think 17-20 near Hood River and Mosier early is likely, picking up to 25-28 from Mosier to Arlington in the afternoon.
Tuesday looks windy too, with low twenties just east of Hood River early picking up to 25-29, maybe stronger, late as a cold system pushes into the Northwest.
If you’d like to go rafting or kayaking today, the White Salmon is at 4.5 feet, the Klickitat is at 2900cfs, the Little White is around 3.4 feet and the Wind River is at 5.3 feet.
Coming up tomorrow night, Columbia Center for the Arts is playing a very cool movie, Journey from Zanskar, and on Tuesday night, there’s a great talk at the Waucoma Club about kayking and river preservation in Kamchatka Russia.
Have an awesome day today!
Temira

Thanks for the suggestion. It’s done. That’s me sailing, but the skier in the photo remains unidentified. I keep hoping he’ll see the photo so I can pass it on to him…

Hey I realize it has been cold lately but isn’t it about time to change your main photo? It would be nice to see you sailing instead of skiing…
Thanks for the suggestion. It’s done. That’s me sailing, but the skier in the photo remains unidentified. I keep hoping he’ll see the photo so I can pass it on to him…
