Portland residents better keep their umbrellas handy, as the National Weather Service in Portland, Oregon, forecasts a soggy week. According to NWS Portland, today's weather features showers with a surefire 100% chance of precipitation and an expected high near 57 degrees. The south wind will be blowing at around 8 to 11 mph, and residents can expect new precipitation amounts to land between a tenth and a quarter of an inch.

The gloomy weather is set to persist into the night, with showers likely tapering off before 9 p.m., yet the chance of precipitation will still stubbornly cling at 60%. Tonight's temperatures will dip to around 48 degrees, while the south-southwest wind slows slightly to 6 to 10 mph. Little rain is expected, but those venturing outside may still get to dodge occasional drops falling shy of a tenth of an inch.

Come Saturday, should look out for the rain to primarily hit after the noon hour. Temperatures will stubbornly rise around the same as today's, with a high near 57 degrees, and the wind will push out at a similar south-southwest pace of 8 to 11 mph. While the chance of getting soaked is slightly less at 80%, it's best to plan for dampness regardless.

The deluge eases but clings to the weekend forecast, with Saturday night showers expected mainly before midnight. The temperature will hover around 49 degrees, with the south wind blowing steadily. The likelihood of rain on Sunday, starting with showers in the early afternoon before graduating to a steadier rain, firmly stands at 80%—another day to prefer indoors.

Looking ahead, Monday and Tuesday will ride the same wet wave with showers and thunderstorms in the mix, featuring high probabilities of rain at 90% and 80%, respectively. Temperatures will hover in the high 50s during the day before dropping to the low 40s at night. The week continues its pattern with sporadic showers throughout, culminating in a probable rainy Thursday with a partly sunny high near 63 degrees.
