Bend, Ore. – The final days of September are shaping up to be warm and dry, offering residents a pleasant transition into autumn. Light winds and abundant sunshine will keep daytime highs in the 70s, a welcome return after a weekend that lingered in the 60s.
What to expect this week
Tuesday looks slightly warmer, with an afternoon high near 75°F—just a few degrees above the normal 71°F for Central Oregon. A weak disturbance moving through Washington may bring a few clouds to Jefferson County, but overall sunshine will dominate.
Wednesday and Thursday will remain quiet, with west‑sweeping winds and an offshore ridge preserving the dry, clear conditions. High pressure at the surface is expected to stay in place through the rest of the week.
Weekend outlook
Friday will continue the dry, mild pattern. A ridge of high pressure extending across the Four Corners region will reinforce the stable weather. Saturday’s highs will sit in the middle 70s, while Sunday— the first weekend of October—could see temperatures climb into the low 80s.
Monday and Tuesday will keep the summer‑like feel alive, with highs again reaching the 80s.
Looking ahead
October is set to start with a slightly warmer but still modest pattern, featuring mostly sunny skies and highs in the middle to upper 70s.
