Mt. Hood Weather Forecast
It’s a wee bit on the warm side on Mt. Hood this morning, but temps will drop this afternoon. Will that help snow quality? Heck no – hopefully you were on it yesterday! We’ll then see a period of rain on Monday followed by snow Tuesday afternoon into Wednesday. Want to ski? Timberline is open, but you’ll need to read their website for details. Teacup is grooming. Meadows is waiting for more snow.Looking at Sunday, we see the snow level drop from 5500′ in the morning to 4000′ in the afternoon and about 3000′ overnight. The sky should clear midday. Before that happens, about 0.2” water value falls as drizzle or sprinkles. Overnight, about 0.2” WV falls as snow, for a couple inches of new. Wind will be W 45 in the morning, W 25 in the afternoon, and SW 15-20 after midnight.
Monday starts with snow, switches to rain, and ends with sun. The snow level will be 3500′ early, 8000′ mid-morning, and 11,000′ in the afternoon and overnight. Incoming weather arrives from the south around 4am. Wet snow quickly switches to rain. Expect a couple inches of that wet snow followed by about 0.5” rain. Wind: SW 15-20 early, SW 20-40 until the afternoon, and SSW 30-50 overnight.
Tuesday starts clear. Rain arrives around sunrise and quickly switches to snow. The snow level will be 11,000′ early, 5000′ in the afternoon, and 4000′ overnight. It’s a bit unclear how much precipitation will fall from this system – models suggest anything from 0.2” WV to 1.2” WV. So, let’s keep an eye on it. Wind accompanying this system will be strong south-westerlies. Looking farther into the week, we see a return to snowy weather for Wednesday and Thursday followed by cooler, likely dry weather through the weekend.
