Portland is starting Friday under clear skies and a mild 63 degrees at Portland International Airport, but the city is headed for a much warmer afternoon. Temperatures should climb quickly into the upper 80s, with a high near 88 and no rain in sight. It is the kind of morning that rewards an early walk before summer turns up the thermostat.
Sunny Friday With Light Winds
Skies will remain sunny through the afternoon as temperatures rise from the low 60s early to the mid- and upper 80s later in the day. The National Weather Service Portland office expects north winds of 1 to 5 mph, increasing modestly later in the afternoon. No watches, warnings or advisories are listed for the area.
Saturday Brings A Breeze And More Clouds
Saturday stays mostly sunny with a high near 86, though a few more clouds may push inland during the morning as the marine layer deepens. North-northwest winds will run 2 to 9 mph, with gusts reaching 18 mph, so exposed spots and afternoon bike rides may feel breezier than Friday. Coastal areas should remain cooler and cloudier than Portland proper.
Low 80s Settle In Next Week
The heat eases Sunday, when Portland is expected to top out near 82 degrees, and similar highs continue through Wednesday. Overnight lows will dip into the upper 50s, making for noticeably more comfortable sleeping weather after sunset. Thursday warms slightly again to around 85, but the forecast remains dry with no meaningful rain chances through the week.
