Oregon – Today, heavy rain and thunderstorms are expected across most of Oregon. This could cause flooding and make major routes like I-5 and Route 84 very slippery. People in Portland, Eugene, and Pendleton should get ready for a lot of rain. Strong winds and thunderstorms could make things worse through Monday. The morning and afternoon trips are likely to be slowed down by these storms.
The National Weather Service says that the Willamette Valley and eastern Oregon will get a lot of rain. By mid-morning, showers will turn into thunderstorms. The risk of flooding will be largest in cities and along low-lying parts of I-5 near Eugene and Portland. Drivers should be careful on wet roads, slow down, and stay away from places with a lot of water.
Monday: Heavy rain and storms are still happening across the whole state. It will be about 55°F high in Eugene and 57°F high in Pendleton.
Tuesday: The rain stops, and the high temperature in Portland is 56°F. In western Oregon, there is some sun.
The rain comes back in the late morning on Wednesday, and highs in Portland and Eugene will be close to 54°F.
