In some cases, very cold continental air from Canada will be driven into the Columbia Gorge, producing an average of two mornings at or below {{convert|0|F|C|1|disp=or}} each winter. The coldest month has been January 1930 with 22 afternoons in succession not topping freezing, an average temperature of {{convert|12.7|F|C|disp=or}} and an average minimum of {{convert|4.9|F|C|disp=or}}. On the other hand, sixteen afternoons during the three-month winter typically top {{convert|50|F|C|disp=or}}. Most of the limited precipitation falls during this period as a mixture of snow and rain. When maritime air interacts with a cold outbreak substantial snow can occur, with maximum monthly totals of {{convert|44.6|in|m|2}} in December 2008 and {{convert|43.1|in|m|2}} in January 1950; however, only a trace of snow fell between July 1963 and June 1964. Very powerful Pacific Northwest rainstorms – although depleted of most moisture by the Cascades – provide the heaviest precipitation: the wettest month has been December 1981 with {{convert|5.02|in|mm|1}} and the wettest "rain year" from July 1947 to June 1948 with {{convert|20.77|in|mm|1}}. The driest "rain year" was from July 1938 to June 1939 with only {{convert|6.77|in|mm|1}}. Apart from occasional thunderstorms, the summers are very dry. When hot winds from the interior reach the Pacific Northwest, very hot "heatwave" conditions can occur. During a typical summer, {{convert|90|F|C|1|disp=or}} will be reached on sixteen afternoons, although {{convert|100|F|C|1|disp=or}} is extremely rare, occurring at all only in eight summers between 1981 and 2010 and never more than twice. The hottest afternoon was on July 24, 1928 – during an exception heatwave of seven century afternoons – which reached {{convert|111|F|C|1|disp=or}}. {{Weather box |location = Condon, Oregon, 1991–2020
