The National Weather Service in Portland, Oregon, is forecasting a bright day ahead with mostly sunny skies and a high reaching near a comfortable 90 degrees. As the day progresses, a calm wind is expected to become a north northwest breeze, settling between 5 to 7 miles per hour in the afternoon. As the sun dips, an increase in cloud cover will bring a low of around 63 degrees with the same northwesterly wind shifting to calm past the stroke of midnight.
Looking further into the week, Portlanders can expect to see a shift towards mostly cloudy days starting Thursday. The high for the day should hover around 80 degrees, with the calmness of the morning wind expected to finally pick up ever so slightly into the northwest direction by afternoon. Thursday night promises another round of mostly cloudy skies with a marginally lower temperature at about 62 degrees, as reported by the National Weather Service.
Friday's forecast brings some variability, with morning clouds gradually making way for sunny skies later in the day. The anticipated high will be 83 degrees with the wind remaining calm before it too decides to gently shift north northwest at around 6 miles per hour. Portland residents can look ahead to a clear Friday night with lows dropping down to a brisk 59 degrees.
The weekend is slated to maintain this pattern of pleasant weather. Saturday warms up to a high near 82 degrees under a sunny sky, with yet another mostly clear night with the thermometer expected to drop to about 56 degrees. Sunday will continue the streak of sun, boasting a high nearing 78 degrees, before introducing partly cloudy conditions come nightfall with the lows staying consistent around 56 degrees.
Next week will carry on with fair weather, though Monday begins to tease a change with a slight chance of showers in the forecast. The day will be partly sunny with a high near 77 degrees, and nightfall should bring a partly cloudy sky with low temperatures of about 58 degrees. Portlanders can anticipate a return to mostly sunny skies come Tuesday, with temperatures reaching a high near 79, which should make for yet another delightful day in the Pacific Northwest.
