Weather Tips for Florence & Oregon Dunes

• Dune wind, blowing sand, coastal fog, heavy rain, cold water, lake wind, tide timing, and sneaker waves can all affect Florence-area plans.
• Check wind, cold water, current, river or lake levels, and lightning risk before choosing open water, river, or shoreline plans.
• For campground days, check overnight lows, fire restrictions, rain timing, and how quickly shelter is available.
