» Aurae Beidler - Tell your winter weather stories

Hello,
Thanks for commenting. My mother has some friends from New South Wales, who came up to Oregon during the winter years ago. It was the first time the children had seen snow. They loved it!

As for Oregon, it's usually pretty mild, and can be wet in the winter and spring. The summers are hot and mostly dry, temps 25-30C. We always say that summer in Oregon starts after the 4th of July, which is typically true. If you like hot weather, then July through September is the time to visit. The autumn in Oregon is very nice, usually the cold weather doesn't hit us until November. The springtime is my favorite because we have so many wildflowers. There are rain showers but the sunbreaks are wonderful.
Oregon has several different climates so it does depend on where you visit. The Oregon coast is beautiful and warm during the autumn months. During the summer, the coast can be very windy and foggy. Temperatures at the coast stay around 15C (60F. Central Oregon, such as Bend, is beautiful, hot in the summer 35C, cold and snow in the winter.
Let me know if you need anymore information. Oregon is lovely!
