Heat rolls in, with highs in 90s over weekend, early next week: Portland metro weather

The solstice is still a couple weeks away, but summer definitively has arrived in Portland.

Friday will reach 85 degrees Fahrenheit in the metro area, with mostly sunny skies, the National Weather Service predicts. The low overnight will be 54.

Then the heat will really ramp up over the weekend, with no rain in sight.

Expect a high of 88 on Saturday and 96 (!) on Sunday, according to the weather service.

The high temperatures continue into the next workweek, with Monday reaching 94 degrees, before the region begins to return to normal, with a projected high of 85 on Tuesday and 78 on Wednesday. Thursday’s high should be around 72.
