Hype for the Future 135F: National Forests of the Cascades (Oregon)
Introduction Within the State of Oregon, much of the Cascade Range is set aside by the federal government to serve as sites of the associated national forests of the region, including the Fremont-Winema, Umpqua, Deschutes, Willamette, and Mount Hood National Forests. Apart from the aforementioned national forests of the area, surrounding communities also play large roles on both the east and west sides of the range, the former often coinciding with the High Desert region spanning much of the […] -
#California Issued Warning Over ‘Onslaught’ of #AtmosphericRivers
By Amanda Greenwood, Dec 17, 2025
"Following last week’s atmospheric rivers—which triggered flooding in the #Cascades and #WashingtonState—the #WestCoast is facing another series of storms, now shifting south. These systems are expected to bring heavy rain and mountain snow to #Oregon and #NorthernCalifornia from Wednesday into the weekend and next week, according to senior meteorologists at The Weather Channel.
"In summary, these meteorologists have forecast that Wednesday could bring heavy rain and high winds to the northwest and far northern parts of California, lessening to showers on Wednesday afternoon.
"Another atmospheric river will then hit #Oregon, Washington, #Idaho, and #Montana on Thursday, bringing snow and rain. By Friday, the system is expected to move into southern Oregon and northern California, particularly affecting areas north of the Bay Area. Over the weekend, there is a concern that northern California will be badly affected by rainfall on Sunday, with locally heavy rain forecast to return to Oregon and Washington.
"They've predicted that the heaviest rainfall is expected to fall over the weekend, in western Oregon and northern California, particularly #Siskiyou and coastal ranges along the California coast, where up to 5 inches of rain is forecast. This is likely to cause #FlashFlooding and possibly even #landslides—especially in areas that have recently experienced #wildfires.
"Already flooded areas in Washington—particularly the Skagit, Snohomish, Green, White, Cowlitz, Chehalis, and Yakima Rivers—could experience secondary crests, a later rise in river levels, from the additional rainfall. Although levels aren’t expected to be as high as last week, it could cause 'major flooding,' especially along the #SkagitRiver."

Dangerous heat continues to bake areas of the West from #WashingtonState to #Arizona
A prolonged and expansive heat wave will continue across the West into early week, resulting in record-breaking highs from the #Cascades to the #DesertSouthwest.
"The all-time record of 117 in #LasVegas could be broken Sunday, and daily records in Vegas could be challenged or broken nearly every day from today through at least next Thursday."
By Alyssa Glenny, AccuWeather Meteorologist
Published Jul 6, 2024
Key Takeaways:
"Over the upcoming days, all-time record high temperatures will be challenged across portions of the West. Daytime highs from Washington to Arizona can range upwards of 100 F, with some Desert Southwest locations soaring above 115 F daily.
"Factors such as a recent lack of rainfall, low relative humidity levels and stifling temperatures will create an elevated #wildfire threat.
"Harsh conditions over the upcoming days can dramatically raise the risk for heat-related illnesses, such as heat stroke and heat exhaustion.
UV indexes categorized as 'extreme'
Copious amounts of sunshine will continue to expand across the West through at least midweek, providing little relief for residents in terms of any shade gleaming from cloud cover. In the heart of the Southwest, locations like Las Vegas and Phoenix are forecast to have max ultraviolet (UV) index levels categorized as extreme for much of this week, ranging between 11 and 12."
