Another hot afternoon ahead Monday

2 weeks ago | kptv.com | Camila Orti

PORTLAND Ore. (KPTV) - We broke Sunday’s daily record for high temperature- officially hitting 96 degrees in Portland (PDX) around 5:30 this evening. Hillsboro also set a new daily warm record today (96, beating out 95) and Eugene, too (94, beating out 93). Yikes it was hot! It will be a very warm overnight, with lows likely in the mid 60s in the metro area. Things will heat up quickly once again Monday- another afternoon in the low to mid 90s is expected.

PORTLAND Ore. (KPTV) - It was a toasty one out there, with PDX hitting 87 degrees Saturday afternoon. We’re expecting those high temperatures to climb about another 10 degrees Sunday. The forecast hasn’t changed since Friday- we’re still thinking mid 90s for most low-level locations west of the Cascades and mid 70s for the North Coast. It will be a First Alert Weather Day for the hot afternoon temperatures, and our first true hot day of the year.

PORTLAND Ore. (KPTV) - Summer (meteorologically speaking) has arrived! It was beautiful out there, with high temperatures in the low to mid 70s in the western valleys and mainly low 60s along the coast. There’s an ongoing G4 magnetic storm happening, so hopefully some folks have a shot at seeing the aurora borealis Sunday night! We’ve already gotten some great photos from Saturday night and this morning.
Much cooler and cloudier Saturday

PORTLAND Ore. (KPTV) - Temperatures are rising quickly Friday afternoon through the low to mid 80s around the metro area. We’ll likely end up in the mid to upper 80s this evening at the Portland International Airport. A very weak disturbance could result in a few sprinkles along the coast and in the Cascades tomorrow, but valley locations will likely stay dry. You’ll notice the additional cloud cover and much cooler temperatures, likely in the mid 70s.
Temperatures heating up, cooler by Sunday

PORTLAND Ore. (KPTV) - Things are warming quickly! Afternoon temperatures climbed into the upper 70s and low 80s across the Portland metro area. Expect things to get even hotter Wednesday afternoon- but not as hot as we were anticipating a few days ago! We lowered the high temperature forecast a couple more degrees, it’s looking more unlikely that metro area locations will hit 90.
Few light showers overnight, but mainly dry Memorial Day

A classic marine layer forecast bust! It stayed cloudy for much longer than we were expecting Sunday, which kept our temperatures from climbing. We got a few more sun breaks in the afternoon, but it’s looking highly unlikely that we’ll get out of the 60s in Portland. A weak front will move in tonight, bringing areas west of the Cascades light, scattered showers.
Cloudy Thursday, then warm sunshine for holiday weekend

PORTLAND Ore. (KPTV) - Wednesday ended up mostly sunny and pleasant with metro area highs climbing through the mid to upper 60s. There’s a good chance we hit 70 degrees at the Portland International Airport. A shortwave will bring us some light rain later tonight and into early Thursday morning, but rain totals shouldn’t exceed about a tenth of an inch in the western valleys.
Scattered showers linger through Tuesday

PORTLAND Ore. (KPTV) - More clouds have pushed Sunday afternoon, but it was a mainly dry day for most of us in the lowlands. Only trace amounts of rain have accumulated across the region with the very spotty showers. It stayed quite cool, though! Metro are temperatures are in the upper 50s as of 4:00 p.m.We’ll stay cloudy and mainly dry overnight, and the next front arrives early Monday morning. This’ll bring us steady valley rain through the Monday morning commute.
Fewer lowland showers Sunday, staying cool

PORTLAND Ore. (KPTV) - We did get plenty of dry breaks between the few showers Saturday, which was expected. What was NOT expected was for a couple pockets of heavy rain to dump almost an inch on the Portland airport between 1 and 4 a.m. Wow! That’s the clear metro area outlier for measurable rainfall today (1.26″), with other metro spots around 0.80″ or less (for the east side) and less than a third of an inch for areas on the west side.
