    Download our FOX 12 Weather App so you can be the first to know about changes in the forecast, check radar and watch additional content from our team!It’s been a pleasant day with partly cloudy skies and an occasional “cool” NW breeze. Since the cold front passed through Wednesday, temperatures have dipped slightly today. Many lows this morning were in the 30s outside of the immediate metro, and we’ll likely reach the upper 60s this evening. A couple low 70s aren’t out of the picture in Portland.

    • None A few more dry and warm days• None Much cooler and wetter next weekDownload our FOX 12 Weather App so you can be the first to know about changes in the forecast, check radar and watch additional content from our team!We’ve been sitting in the upper 60s and low 70s across the metro and valleys this afternoon. A few pop-up showers are showing up on radar. We think it may last until about sunset, with the Cascade Foothills getting the last of the rain this evening.

    It’s very warm today, as expected! Today marks our 5th day of the year in 80s and the 2nd already of May. We will continue to see clear skies through the night as temperatures slowly drop. It will be a mild evening, only dropping to the low 50s in Portland by morning. Tomorrow will see some changes. We will likely wake up some partly cloudy skies, briefly breaking in the early afternoon.

    What a beautiful day! It’s a warm one and will be even warmer tomorrow. Expect clear skies for the rest of the evening and overnight. Temperatures will cool to the mid to upper 40s overnight, so not as cold as the past few nights. Tomorrow, we will start with sunshine and temperatures warming very quickly. Our high will be in the low to mid 80s tomorrow afternoon with mostly sunny skies. Expect a few high clouds later in the day.
