SnowBrains Forecast: Modest Whistler Snow and Limited Cascade Gains in the Pacific Northwest

The Pacific Northwest snow forecast favors modest upper-mountain snow at Whistler through Friday, with much smaller additions in the Cascades. Mild temperatures and high snow levels limit how much these systems can build the early-season base. None of the resorts covered here are currently open for skiing, with Whistler preparing for winter operations and Timberline waiting for sufficient snow to […] The post SnowBrains Forecast: Modest Whistler Snow and Limited Cascade Gains in the Pacific Northwest appeared first on SnowBrains .

Fire season ends, backyard debris burning season begins

The Oregon Department of Forestry’s (ODF) Western Lane and South Cascade Districts and the Lane Fire Defense Board (LFDB) announced that fire season in Lane County officially closed at 11:59 p.m. Friday, Oct. 16, 2026. Backyard debris burning opened Saturday, Oct. 17 and that season is regulated by the Lane Regional Air Protection Agency (LRAPA). While conditions have improved enough to close out fire season, ODF, LFDB, and LRAPA are urging residents to stay cautious. Dry vegetation and debris from a long fire season can still ignite easily, and a single unattended pile can quickly turn into a wildfire — or a serious air quality problem for the whole community. This summer was one of Oregon’s most severe fire seasons on record, with more than 2.5 million acres burned statewide. Anticipated rain, cooler temperatures, and improving fuel moisture allowed officials to set a closing date. “We’re glad conditions have improved enough to close out fire season, but that doesn’t mean the danger disappears overnight,” ODF South Cascade District Forester Chris Cline said. “Residents should still take every precaution before lighting a debris pile. Make sure you have water and a shovel ready and attend the burn until it is out.”

Major storms next week could herald mega El Niño's impact on Oregon

After one of the driest Octobers on record , Oregon is heading into the wet part of the season with big questions about what a potentially record-setting El Niño might mean for this winter. A hint could be arriving as early as next week. Light showers are forecast to arrive on Nov. 4 and into the weekend, but the more powerful storms could be about a week away. Weather models for next week – beginning around Nov. 10 – show the potential for major rain, mountain snow and winds from Nov. 10 to 14, according to the National Weather Service hazards outlook . The Willamette Valley could see up to 6 inches while the mountains could see as high as 9, said state climatologist Larry O’Neill. He emphasized that it was still very early to make predictions, however. “The details will likely change, but the main message would be that there is potential high-impact weather in the Pacific Northwest in 10-14 days,” he said. Storms could portend mega El Nino’s impact on Oregon this winter With one of the strongest El Niño patterns on record forecast in the Pacific this winter, forecasters have been looking for signs about what it

Oregon coast faces ‘perfect storm’ for erosion

OREGON – A combination of an incoming El Nino season and seasonal King Tides is expected to test Oregon’s coastal management policies with severe erosion, according to Taylor Wood, an Oregon Beaches Forever Fellow with the Surfrider Foundation. “We’re likely on the cusp of what might be like a perfect storm to see pretty severe erosion impacts,” Wood said, noting that King Tides provide “a glimpse into what a future of elevated water levels might look like.” This combination directly threatens both coastal development and critical natural habitats as beaches get caught in a “coastal squeeze” between rising seas and property boundaries.
