This should be just in time for another great stretch of strong winds according to Temira:
"Don’t leave your garbage cans out tonight. As an upper low pushes inland tomorrow, dragging much colder air into Portland, we’ll see westerlies in the 20′s early and 30-40 range from early afternoon to dark, likely strongest and steadiest east of Hood River. Now, this isn’t a perfect setup – there is a chance of thunderstorms and major gustiness, but the gradients will be there, and you’re going to find lots of wind in the eastern Gorge.
Camping at Roosevelt or somewhere else out east might be a good idea, because Friday looks windy too. Expect 23-26+ to start, rising to 30-35 from Lyle east to Threemile in the early afternoon. Clouds will likely push past Hood River on Friday, so the wind in the western Gorge will be much lighter and gustier.
Saturday looks like 26-30 somewhere and Sunday looks like 23-26+. Yep. It’ll be a good weekend to be in the Gorge, eh?" |
