The weather over the Cascade Mountain Range can change rapidly in the summer time. Wind flows off the Pacific and high desert heat can produce weather patterns that are not favorable to light aircraft. Come and learn how these patterns can change with the location of high and low pressure systems and how you can inform yourself about the expected weather before you take-off.
