Brace yourselves, Portlanders, as the city gears up for a steady succession of frosty mornings. According to the National Weather Service (NWS), Portland is experiencing a current temperature of a chilly 37°F with a mist wrapping the city, further highlighted by a notable humidity at 93%. Visibility has been reduced to a mere 2.50 miles, suggesting that travelers should certainly take extra caution during the early hours. This weather update was last reported by the NWS at 6:20 AM PST.
For those looking forward to the day ahead, the city can expect areas of frost between 9 am and 11 am, giving way to partly sunny skies, with highs nudging a modest 44 degrees without so much as a breath of wind to stir the air. The calm persists into the night, marked by the return of frost after 11 pm while the cloud cover holds strong, and the thermometer dips to around 33 degrees, as detailed by the National Weather Service.
Tuesday continues the pattern with frost forming between 10 and 11 am. The clouds will eventually clear, bringing gradual sunshine and a high of around 45 degrees. Winds remain calm. Midweek follows suit, with widespread frost before 8 am on Wednesday. The sun will shine, raising temperatures to near 49 degrees, with light northeast winds adding a slight change to the still atmosphere, as per the NWS.
As the week continues, the city will wake to more widespread frost before 8 am on Thursday, but the climate makes a slight concession to variety with partly sunny skies and a high of about 45 degrees. Nightfall doesn't bring surprises. It frosts again after 5 am, under partly cloudy expanses. By the time Friday rolls around, the song remains the same, with frost giving way to mostly sunny conditions and a near-constant 44 degrees.
