The forecast is calling for a stretch of days with highs in the 50s this week. In case you are wondering, chilly afternoon highs in the 50s are in the PDX record book all the way into June 26th! We are getting into the time of year you would expect to see 70 degree temperatures a little more often. 70 degree highs become the Portland climate average May 27th. Starting tomorrow, April 25th, the record high for each day is 80 degrees or warmer. Remember the last average freeze for the entire metro areas of Salem and Portland is May 1st. Most areas have likely seen their last 32 degree morning until next fall.
April to date averages close to normal temperature wise. Temperature outlooks for May & June call for our area to be warmer than average. Could be a hot summer, we'll see?
