The weather is the weather, and we will have it every day of the Columbia150.

Temperatures: Expect temperatures to be between 50° and 105°

Wind: The winds on the Columbia River are legendary and can go from 0 to gale force in the space of a few hours. Expect the wind to be blowing directly upriver (we are traveling downriver) and to be getting stronger as the day progresses.

Rain: There is a very real possibility of rain, either in the form of squalls or just good old all-day, all-night drizzle.
