Mother's day brings more cool showery weather to the Northwest, but this time, it gets blown out by a long warm spell that transforms into a hot weather. If it seems early for 90° weather, I think it's because it's been so cool for so long. April 2008 was the coolest April in the Willamette Valley since the mid-70s. People aren't mentally prepared for the weather to get so warm so suddenly. Here's a look at the first 90° day of t...
Ok I get it I blew the forecast for Saturday! Our 6pm producer Carol McClain, spent 10 minutes berating me over going into the Columbia River Gorge Saturday & getting rained on. Then Frank, our chief web guru decided to pour salt into the wound. Frank took his brand new carbon fiber bicycle out for a spin around town. After a soaking wet ride Frank came home and spent Saturday evening cleaning the dirt and grit off his b... Many of you may already know - I'm a transplant. I grew up in >> Continue reading: Just a glimmer
Patience is a virtual my mother keeps saying. Many of us are running out of patience when it comes to the weather this spring. Hang on just another few days and your patience will be rewarded
Today is the driest and warmest day of the week. A weak ridge of high pressure will allow for morning clouds to clear and temperatures to reach the low 60s. Tomorrow the bottom falls out! a push of unseasonably cold and wet air arrives from the north.

Followed by, "stick around kid, I'll teach you everything you need to know." And he did. Listening to my fellow broadcasters share stories about Jim at his memorial service on Monday brought back a flood of memorie... It's going to be a Coppertone and Ray Ban weekend! Sunny and warm temperatures will continue across all of the Pacific Northwest. The high temperature hits 75 today making the warmest day since last October! It's been a long time coming. Since a lot of you will be outside basking in the sun make sure you're using sun screen. A pasty face white boy like me takes about 30 minutes before I start to burn. Trust me the results of not using... If anybody in the Portland television market can be called a legend it's Jim Bosley. In the TV business,The Boz simply had it. It is that intangable something that causes the viewers to watch a certain person. For almost 35 years Jim, was likely the most recognized television personality in Portland. What you saw on the air was the same Jim off camera. He was warm, open and a genuine nice guy. I remember seeing him when I ... Yes I know it's April 1st, and we've had a long run of cold and damp weather. Last week was a bust as far as spring break weather goes. Snow fell on the valley floor and high temperatures struggle to hit the 40s. This week it's different, the weather pattern is finally turning around and looking a little more like spring. High pressure is developing off the Pacific Coast. The ridge should hold through the first part of the weekend. Com... |
