We delve into the intricacies of weather patterns along the Oregon coast with Dr. Paul Loikith, an Associate Professor of Weather and Climate Science at Portland State University. Dr. Leuketh provides valuable insights into heavy storms called atmospheric rivers, emphasizing their significance in influencing extreme weather events like heavy precipitation and strong winds in the region. He highlights the importance of monitoring weather forecasts, particularly for cyclists planning trips to the coast, to avoid getting caught in hazardous storms.
