Check here for the most current weather conditions for Sunriver Oregon and Mt. Bachelor.
Nearly 300 days of sunshine per year - The Central Oregon climate is a dry high desert atmosphere with little precipitation ranging in elevations from 1,500 feet at Warm Springs to 4,800 at Sunriver. Most of our precipitation arrives during the winter months and falls as snow rather than rain like the western half of Oregon. Because of the dramatic climb in elevation, Central Oregon's weather will vary depending on the city or town you may be in. Sunriver will have snow pack nearly all winter long, whereas Redmond stays mostly dry. Bend lies somewhere in between with a snow fall usually resulting in melting by the afternoon. Average temperatures during the summer reach over 80 degrees while winter can get very chilly with an average maximum of only 41 degrees.
Central Oregon has more sunny days than Houston, Texas, and only 14% less than Phoenix, Arizona
