Description
Good morning, this is your Bend Local Frequency for Sunday, February 15.
Kick off your day with caution as a Dense Fog Advisory blankets Central Oregon through the morning, dropping visibility to under a quarter mile in spots and creating slick roads from mist and possible icy patches south of Lava Butte toward Sisters. Temps stay above freezing mostly, but drive slow and give yourself extra time. Looking ahead, light snow dusts the Cascades today, ramping up to 6 to 9 inches by Tuesday evening, with resorts like Hoodoo open 9am to 4pm and gearing up for more powder all week perfect for skiers chasing fresh turns.
In wildlife news thats sparking buzz, a wolf was spotted right here in Bend city limits this week, another reminder that rewilding efforts are bringing these majestic creatures closer to home, reshaping our high desert ecosystem one paw print at a time. Meanwhile, tragedy struck Thursday when 85-year-old Melinda Ann Lyons was fatally hit by a car in the Safeway parking lot on SW Century Drive; the driver stayed on scene and was cited for careless driving, a somber call for all of us to stay vigilant in lots and intersections.
