Central Washington, along the Columbia River, has a climate that varies greatly from place to place within the watershed. Elevation ranges from sea level at the river mouth to more than 14,000 feet in the mountains, and temperatures vary with elevation. High elevations have cold winters and short cool summers; interior regions are subject to great temperature variability and severe droughts. Over some of the watershed, especially west of the Cascade Mountains, precipitation is greater in winter, when Pacific storms come ashore. Atmospheric conditions block the flow of moisture in summer, which is generally dry except for occasional thunderstorms. Annual precipitation varies from more than 100 inches a year in the Cascades to less than 8 inches in the interior. Much of the area gets less than 12 inches a year.
