Weather Whiplash Awaits

Showers & sunbreaks Tuesday, sunny and summer-like weather on the way
KGW Forecast: Noon, Tuesday, May 7, 2024

PORTLAND, Oregon — Spotty showers continue today. Morning snow levels in the Cascades are near 3,500 and will rise above 4,000' this afternoon.

We've got one more day of showers & sunbreaks, and then we're done with the rain for at least a week -possibly more.

High temperatures today range from about 58° to 62° across the Portland-Vancouver Metro area. The sky clears tonight setting the stage for some patchy frost. We won't see frost in town tonight, but there is a Frost Advisory overnight for surrounding communities from midnight to 8 A.M. Wednesday.

After a chilly start Wednesday morning, temperatures warm to near 70-degees with full sunshine Wednesday afternoon.

We get a little taste of summer starting Thursday and we may be challenging record highs through Saturday.

Thursday's Forecast High: 84°  (Record High: 87° / 2020 )

Friday's Forecast High: 90°  (Record High: 89° / 2019 )

Saturday's Forecast High: 89°  (Record High: 91° / 1971 )

We dial back the heat for Mother's Day Sunday, with high near 80° and we should keep temps in the 70s next Monday & Tuesday.

Have a great Tuesday
