Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Portland OR 243 PM PDT Fri May 16 2025
SYNOPSIS
A progressive weather pattern will bring periods of light rain through the weekend and into early next week. Expect temperatures to remain slightly below average during this period.
Rain showers increase later tonight through Saturday, along with a 10-20% chance of thunderstorms Sat afternoon. Lingering showers into Sunday, though most areas likely drier. Temperatures trending warmer, upper 60s to lower 70s, toward the end of next week.
DISCUSSION
Tonight through Friday...Mostly cloudy skies with light rain showers, mainly along the north coast, will continue through this evening. Temperatures this afternoon are warming into the mid-60s inland, still around 5 degrees below normal for mid-May.
Later tonight, expect showers to increase in intensity and become more widespread as the next weather system approaches. A shortwave trough riding along the northern Pacific jet slides across the region, digging toward northern California by early Saturday morning. Rain showers will likely be heaviest through the early morning hours as the atmospheric moisture is at its deepest and the upper trough is overhead. Chances for showers will continue through the rest of the day, with a small (10-20%) chance for a rumble of thunder through Saturday afternoon/evening. No strong thunderstorms expected. With continued onshore west to northwesterly flow aloft, rain will be most persistent along the higher terrain, especially the western slopes of the Cascades and Cascade foothills. Total rainfall amounts from now through Saturday night are expected to range from around 0.10 to 0.40 inch for much of the lowlands, and a bit more substantial for the higher terrain, around 0.5 to 1.0 inch, with a 20-30% chance of exceeding an inch of rainfall over 48-hours for a few locations in the Cascades.
Conditions trend drier on Sunday, though light showers persist into the afternoon as troughing along the British Columbia coast drops south, developing into a cutoff low east of the Cascades by Sunday evening. Transient upper level ridging builds over the region Sunday night with decreasing clouds, and some sunshine by later Sunday afternoon into the evening. Temperatures remain slightly below average into early next week. Another round of light rain is now likely on Monday as a weak front crosses the region. Zonal flow with embedded upper level disturbances could maintain light showers into Tuesday, again mainly over northern portions of the forecast area.
Agreement amongst the models and their ensembles degrades middle to end of next week with cluster analysis showing split pretty equally between ridging and troughing. NBM guidance though continues to suggest temperatures gradually warm closer to average toward the latter part of next week, along with precipitation probabilities generally 15% or less Wednesday through Friday. /DH
AVIATION
West to southwest winds aloft as a weather system approaches and moves through the region, becoming west to northwest by 12z Saturday. Predominately VFR conditions inland through 06-09z Saturday. Along the coast, predominately MVFR conditions with occasional IFR conditions expected though a few hours of improved conditions possible through 03z Saturday.
Another frontal system is expected to bring a round of widespread showers and the return of MVFR/IFR cigs along the coast by 03-06z Saturday and MFR cigs inland by 06-09z Saturday. Southerly to southwesterly winds at less than 10 kt will continue at all terminals through much of the period, turning out of the north to northwest behind the frontal boundary.
PDX AND APPROACHES...VFR cigs around FL3300-5000. Another frontal system will bring additional rain showers and likely MVFR cigs around FL1500-3000 after 06-09z Saturday. North to northwest winds less than 10 kt, becoming westerly after 12z Saturday. -HEC
MARINE
Southwesterly winds over the waters Friday afternoon will shift northwesterly tonight into Saturday as a front passes through the region. Winds through early Saturday morning around 8-15 kts with gusts mainly below 20 kts. However, a localized area of wind gusts up to 25 kts exists in portions of zones PZZ271 & PZZ251 through around 5 PM PDT. Winds increase Saturday late morning behind the frontal passage to 17-22 kts with gusts up to 25-30 kts through Sunday morning. A Small Craft Advisory has been issued for 11 AM Saturday through 11 AM Sunday. Seas remain around 5-9 ft at 10-12 seconds through the weekend.
Another frontal passage is forecast on Monday. Winds shift southerly with another round of Small Craft wind gusts 25-30 kts expected (70-90% chance). Seas decrease to 5-7 ft at 10 seconds Monday before an increasing westerly swell builds waves to around 9-10 ft at 12-13 seconds on Tuesday. -HEC
