The next 7 days in Bend

How this week got its score

  • 7 forecast days: 0 clear/mainly clear, 0 partly cloudy, 7 overcast, 0 wet (fog/drizzle/rain/showers), 0 stormy.
  • Trimmed mean of day scores 7.9 × 0.55 = 4.37
  • Worst day drag: worst day is 6.0 × 0.25 = 1.50 - one bad day cannot be averaged away.
  • Longest consecutive run of good days (≥7.0) is 3/7 = 43% coverage × 0.20 = 0.86
  • Best single day is 8.5 but it only counts through the trimmed mean - a lone great day cannot carry the window.
  • Advertised 3-day window (2026-08-17→2026-08-19) scores 8.7 on its own.
  • Legacy gate counted 4/7 days as "perfect sun"; this model counts 0 genuinely clear.
