Random Morning Thoughts
It’s Tuesday, and I have an unexpected half day off. Well, off from everything except writing a forecast! So, if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to go eat a delicious breakfast and do something fun with a friend. Have an awesome day!
Disclaimer required by my grad school program: I am not your therapist, but I am seeing clients at this time at Comprehensive Healthcare in White Salmon. In the meantime, I am your weather forecaster. Take everything I say with a grain of salt, and consult with your actual therapist about your mental health issues. One other thing: I plan to keep doing this forecast indefinitely. Forecasting and counseling are both deeply meaningful and nourishing to me.
Gorge Wind Forecast
For Tuesday, there will be W 7-11 in the morning. In the afternoon, the wind will pick up to gusty 18-22 east of The Dalles. Wednesday starts out calm, picks up to E 10-15 near Stevenson, and goes light easterly in the afternoon. Thursday brings light westerly flow that probably won’t be strong enough to be called “wind”.
Gorge Weather Forecast
I just did a GOLU, and it’s cloudy. It’ll be that way most of the day, and then less cloudy in the afternoon. There might be some sprinkles. Temps will be in the upper 30’s early and mid 40’s later. Light west wind. 56% chance of rainbows. Wednesday looks cloudy then rainy. Temps will be in the mid 30’s early and mid 40’s later. Light east wind. No rainbows. Snow level 500′ early, 2500′ in the afternoon, and 500′ after midnight. Thursday looks cloudy in the morning, partly cloudy in the afternoon, with mixed rain overnight and icy roads Friday morning.

Road and Mountain Biking
Well, so much for mountain biking season! Everything is covered in snow and will likely stay that way for a while. Syncline might be an option, but with the freeze-thaw happening, you’ll do some serious trail damage if you ride there.
Upcoming Events
Coming up Tuesday, there’s by-donation moving meditation at Trinity at 6:15. There’s a free meditation/breathing class at Flow at 8am. There a free yoga class at Trinity Natural Medicine at noon. There are two evening by-donation events: a women’s only (anyone identifying as “female”) mobility, strength and self-defense class at First Light in Hood River at 6pm, and meditation with the Pacific Hermitage monks at 6:30 at Yoga Samadhi.

Have an awesome day today!
