Pendleton, OR – Thanksgiving travelers and locals should prepare for brisk mornings and patchy fog throughout Eastern Oregon this week. High temperatures will remain below normal, while overnight lows could dip into the 20s.
According to the National Weather Service, Thanksgiving Day will be mostly sunny in Pendleton with a calm high near 42°F.

Looking ahead, patchy fog will persist through Friday and Saturday mornings, followed by mostly sunny afternoons with highs in the low 40s. Evening lows will hover in the low 20s, making frost and icy roads a continued concern for holiday drivers.
While no rain or snow is forecast, these cold and foggy conditions can still pose travel challenges. Drivers are advised to allow extra time, use low beams, and exercise caution on rural roadways. Pedestrians should bundle up, particularly during morning hours.
The weather pattern is expected to remain stable through early next week. Sunday and Monday will bring similar conditions, with highs near 41°F and overnight lows in the low 20s. This consistent chill underscores the importance of preparing for winter weather safety, even in clear conditions.
