Portland Prepares for Week of Showers and Potential Thunderstorms

Portland residents should brace themselves for a deluge, as the National Weather Service (NWS) forecasts a wet and stormy week ahead, starting with Veterans Day showers and potential thunderstorms. According to the

NWS Portland

, the chance of precipitation today stands at 80%, with the likelihood of rain ebbing and flowing throughout the week.

The temperature will hover around the low 50s, and while Veterans Day might bring a reprieve in the rain before 1 p.m., showers and possible thunderstorms are lined up to drench the city between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m before more showers follow; furthermore the wind will blow from the south southwest around 10 mph, gusting up to 21 mph. The deluge is set to continue into the night with a 90% chance of precipitation and similar wind conditions, showcasing the potential for both showers and thunderstorms mainly before 3 a.m., and then again after 3 a.m.

As Tuesday rolls in, so does a certainty of showers before 4 p.m., transitioning to rain thereafter, with new precipitation amounts that could reach between a tenth and quarter of an inch, the NWS Portland forecasts suggest a continued pattern of rain with a 100% chance of precipitation and a steady south wind featuring 21 mph gusts. The successive days offer no respite from the rain as the chance of precipitation persists at 100%, with Wednesday also throwing potential thunderstorms into the mix after 10 a.m., and south winds sticking around 14 mph and gusting as high as 28 mph.

Thursday promises showers with a stable high temperature near 53 degrees amid unwavering rainfall, that likelihood extends into the night, although the cloud cover might break modestly come Friday even as showers yoke the daytime forecast—and for those looking toward the weekend, don’t put away your umbrellas, as showers are touted as likely again on Saturday.
