Windy Week

A strong system will continue bringing substantial mountain snowfall across the Cascades and northern Blue Mountains Tuesday through Wednesday, which will impact travel across mountain passes. Winds may also be elevated over the Cascade passes, which may degrade visibilities due to blowing snow. Make sure to check the forecast and road conditions before travelling, and notify friends and family of your route and when you depart and arrive.

An active weather pattern will make for quite the windy week this week. Keep an eye on Tuesday night into Wednesday in particular, where we have High Wind Warnings in effect for the foothills of the Blue Mountains in Oregon, as well as central and north central Oregon. This also includes Wind Advisories in effect for the Oregon Columbia Basin, John Day Basin, and Grande Ronde Valley. The forecast is subject to change, but these areas could see wind gusts as high as 60 mph. Stay tuned!
