At McNary Field, normal mean temperatures run from 42.5°F in winter to 67.1°F in summer, with 40.08 inches of normal annual precipitation. For residents in West Salem, Grant, or Morningside, a runner can handle simple shopping and pickups when time, mobility, driving, or trusted access is the constraint.
