Summary

A dangerous heatwave is bearing down on the Pacific Northwest, with a 70% chance of temps soaring above 90°F and potential 100°F scorches in Portland-Vancouver, the Willamette Valley, and the Columbia Gorge. Heat advisories are in effect Monday through Tuesday night—stay hydrated, avoid outdoor exertion, and beware of fast-moving, dangerously cold rivers. Relief arrives Wednesday with highs in the upper 80s to low 90s, but a 20-40% chance of 95°F+ lingers in the Portland-Salem area. Stay alert, stay cool, and look out for neighbors—this heat could catch you off guard. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
