Oregon
Climate of Oregon
Stillehavet, den fugtige luft over det og de storme, der bevæger sig fra det over Oregons kyst, er vigtige faktorer i statens nedbørsmønstre. Når fugtig havluft strømmer østpå fra havet og møder Coast Range, stiger den stejlt op, afkøles og mister fugt gennem kondensation, hvilket giver kraftig regn. De kraftigste nedbørsmængder i staten falder i 610-1 220 m højde over havet i disse kystbjerge. I lavere højder langs kysten er den orografiske nedbør mindre intens, men den giver stadig mellem 1.500 og 2.000 mm om året.

Climate of Oregon
The Pacific Ocean, the moisture-laden air above it, and the storms moving from it over the Oregon coast, are major factors in the state's precipitation patterns. As humid ocean air flows east from the ocean and encounters the Coast Range, it rises steeply, cools, and loses moisture through condensation, which produces heavy rain. The heaviest precipitation in the state occurs at 2,000 to 4,000 feet (610 to 1,220 m) above sea level in these coastal mountains. At lower elevations along the coast, orographic precipitation is less intense but still produces 60 to 80 inches (1,500 to 2,000 mm) a year.
