Plain Old Local Weather

Today is our best chance for sunbreaks in the Gorge. Temps will be in the mid-40’s. Tomrorow starts off near freezing, with the inversion cloudy likely. Temps will rise to the low 40’s in the afternoon. Repeat this forecast through Friday.

Gorge Wind Forecast

Yesterday looked mighty windy out there, but I wasn’t able to man up for 50/40 air/water. Today starts with westerlies at 10-15, but they’ll fade to nothing by the afternoon, swinging to easterly overnight. Tomorrow brings easterlies at 26-30. Thursday brings easterlies at 22-25.

Road and Mountain Biking

Sounds like Syncline has dried out quite a bit from the west wind the last few days. Post is likely too muddy after yesterday’s rain. Whoopdee remains closed due to trail conditions. Petersburg Loop in The Dalles should be nice today, with light wind on the schedule.
