Summary
Portland’s sweltering heat is breaking records again, with temps hitting the 90s and even 100 degrees—way above the old June 1 record set in 1966. But relief is on the way: a cool-down of 10-15 degrees expected Tuesday thanks to an onshore breeze clearing wildfire smoke and dropping Valley temps into the 80s. Still, it’ll be warmer than average for this time of year, which typically hovers in the 70s—especially as summer solstice looms. With four 90-degree days already this spring, this pattern of extreme, shifting heat is a sign the warmer season is here and getting wilder.
