December brings a mix of winter storms characterized by heavy rainfall, strong winds, and occasional snowfall. Here's an overview of the types of storms Eugene typically experiences in December:

Rainstorms: In December, winter rainstorms are frequent, often bringing heavy and persistent rainfall. These storms can lead to waterlogged soil and localized flooding, especially in areas with inadequate drainage.

Windstorms: Coastal storms from the Pacific Ocean can bring strong winds, sometimes reaching up to 40-60 mph. These winds can cause tree branches to fall and lead to power outages or minor property damage.

Snowstorms (Occasionally): Although snowfall is rare in Eugene due to its lower elevation, it does happen occasionally in December. When temperatures drop low enough, a winter storm may bring a mix of snow and rain or a brief period of snowfall.

Ice Storms: While infrequent, ice storms are possible when rain falls and freezes in contact with surfaces. This type of storm can make roads and sidewalks treacherous and cause ice build-up on trees and power lines.

The Pacific Northwest's moist climate plays a significant role in Eugene's winter weather patterns, with December often being one of the wettest months.
