Mt. Hood Weather Forecast
Snow is in the Mt. Hood forecast for the next four days, at least. The path of incoming storms isn’t conducive to massive snowfall; it is a pattern that will keep the slopes refreshed. Friday starts off partly cloudy. Snow starts up around 1pm and continues all night. The snow level will be 0′ early, 1500′ during the day, and 500′ or so overnight. We’ll see 0.1” water value before 4pm, for an inch of new. Another 0.7”+ falls tonight, for 7-9” of dry powder. Wind will be W 15 early, W 30 early afternoon, W 45 overnight, and W 25 after midnight.
Saturday starts out with flurries and perhaps some sun up high, although the clouds may be deep enough that you wont’ be about to escape them. The snow level will be 500′ in the morning, 1000′ in the afternoon, and 0′ overnight. Wind will be W 25 early, W 10 mid-morning, WSW 15-20 in the evening and overnight.
Sunday looks snowy. The snow level will be 0′ near Mt. Hood. Precip: 0.3” WV during the day, for 3-4” of fluffy powder. 0.3” overnight for another 3-4” of fluffy powder. Wind will be WSW 15-20 in the morning, WNW 20 in the afternoon, and E/SE 5-15 overnight. More snowfall arrives on Monday with very cold temps. At this point, it’s looking likely that the snowfall will fly in Portland as well as on the mountain.
Gorge Wind
we’re starting out with light east wind and a .02 easterly gradient fro Friday. That’s about what we expected. A system drops down from the north and sends low pressure just east of the Cascade Crest this afternoon, switching the wind to light westerly after 11am in the far western Gorge and after 7pm everywhere. River flow is 102kcfs and temps is 35 degrees. Saturday starts off with light west wind and quickly turns to light easterly. Sunday starts with E 15-20 and drops to E 10-15 in the afternoon. We’ll have strong and widespread easterlies on Monday.

Up to 2-3” at the highest elevations of town tonight. Maybe. East wind early. Light westerly later. No rainbows. Saturday starts with snow flurries. The temp will be right at freezing early and in the mid to upper 30’s later. Trace of snow. 22% chance of rainbows. Sunday looks snowy.
