A weak cold front moving into the region on Wednesday will bring cooler and cloudier weather and some chances of Portland seeing light rain. While Portland warmed to 84 degrees Tuesday (unofficial), Wednesday’s high temp will dip about 10 degrees to near 73. Much of the day will be partly cloudy with heavier clouds moving in by the afternoon. Portland’s best chances of light showers will start around 5 p.m. Winds will be calm to start, then blow up to 10 mph by the evening.

Are you ready for a toasty Tuesday? The National Weather Service says we’ll see the warmest day of the week Tuesday with a high temp forecast in the low to mid 80s across the valleys and in the mid 60s to low 70s along the coast. Portland will see light easterly/northeasterly winds across the metro area through the late morning. Those winds will help keep the beaches warm as well. How warm will Portland get?

An upper level ridge moving over the eastern Pacific Ocean early Monday will gradually push into the Pacific Northwest giving the metro area a sunny day. The National Weather Service notes that clearing overnight has allowed for chilly temperatures and some frost formation in parts of the Willamette Valley. That frost should quickly depart as the sun rises. Portland started the day with temps in the high 30s or low 40s, but sunny skies will help warm Monday to about 75 degrees.

Portland will end the work week with sunny Friday morning skies across the metro area, but an approaching system will usher in clouds, then some light rain later in the day. The National Weather Service says residents can expect change as evidenced by cloudy skies by the afternoon courtesy of a cold front bringing moisture into the region. The best chance of rain showers is later Friday afternoon, overnight, and into early Saturday morning.

Portland only made it to 70 degrees Wednesday. Will Thursday’s high temperature really hit 85? The National Weather Service is watching a ridge of high pressure bring dry and warm conditions to the metro area Thursday and most of Friday. Temperatures are expected to warm up into the upper 70s and low 80s across much of the Willamette Valley, but with east winds blowing in the Portland area, we have about a 50% chance of reaching 85 degrees under clear skies.
