Temperature
Moderate days and cool nights characterize Bend’s year-round climate. Because of high altitude and clear air, nighttime temperatures average 30F to 40F below daytime highs. Evenings are generally cool, even in the summer, requiring sweaters or jackets. Annual temperature extremes show that only one year out of five has a temperature colder than -17F or warmer than 100F. Frost can occur during any summer month.

Precipitation
The average annual precipitation in Bend is less than 12 inches, over half falls between November and February, often as snow. Brief thunderstorms usually provide most of the light summer rain. The average annual snowfall is 33.8 inches. Snow depth in Bend exceeds 24 inches in only one winter out of twenty. At Mt. Bachelor, the ski resort 22miles southwest of Bend snow normally reaches depths of 160 to 180 inches.

Sunshine
Bend has the highest average number of sunny days in the state. Clear days average 158 days per year with an additional 105 days that are mostly sunny. Many of the remaining days provide substantial sunshine. Days that are totally cloudy do not often occur.

Wind
Surface winds prevail out of the South and Southeast from October to February, then West and Northwest for the remaining months. Wind speeds average from 5 to 7 mph most months.

Growing Season
Because severe frosts have occurred as late as May 31st and as early as September 1st, the general advice is to plan for a 92 day growing season. Any transplanting of annual bedding plants in Bend before Memorial Day involves an element of risk. Some of the lowest minimums on record have occurred during the months of June, July, and August.

The High Desert
Located in the Central Oregon High Desert, you’ll enjoy warm summers with low humidity. The Cascade Mountain peaks do an excellent job breaking up the clouds flowing from the Oregon coast, making sure that they capture every snowflake available for winter sports enthusiasts. Mild winters and summers make Bend, Oregon a comfortable decision for vacation plans.
