Description

Excerpt from Frequency of Dry East Winds Over Northeast Oregon and Southwest Washington<br/><br/>East-wind frequencies over northwest Oregon and southwest Washington vary by month, and the pattern of monthly variation differs with elevation. These frequencies have been obtained from winds aloft over Portland in the study years 1934-41 and 1948-54. Coming at the end of the usually dry summer period and follow ing the near minimum frequencies of August at all elevations, Sep tember bears the greatest impact of easterly winds as they affect forest fire control. This is the month of greatest frequency of major east winds at 3, 500 to 6, 000 feet elevation, of greatest increase in frequency from a previous month at all elevations, and second only to April in frequency of major east winds in exposed valleys below 500 feet elevation.
