Wind could be a factor in a couple of #NFL games this week, especially #DALvsGB. My tool @KickoffWeather has Cowboys-Packers at a 4/10 Weather Impact Score, with sustained winds of 10–20 mph and gusts potentially topping 35-40 mph at Lambeau.
If that’s true, Portland must be a close second. Just about to hit 70°F as of 1:45pm. Spectacular day across the PNW!
Heckuva day in Portland! 68°F at #PDX (so far) makes this the warmest day so far this year.
Also, first tweet since 2024. What did I miss?
Hey @ReedTimmerUSA, a friend of mine just took this shot.
“Hey Jeff, thought you’d like to see what just passed south of my house in Norman, Oklahoma.”
Today is my last day at Fox 12. So much love for my co anchors Joe V. & Bonnie Silkman. Going to miss working with these two, and many other coworkers.
For those asking, I’ll be staying local in the PDX metro. Working for a company called Avangrid, providing forecasts for energy traders (focused on solar and wind farms). I’ll keep posting stuff to social media from time to time..
The aurora borealis was visible last night in southwest Washington! This was the view from Washougal, WA. Thanks to Cheryl Crume for sharing! #NorthernLights
I see some "termination dust" ❄️ around the peak of Mt. Hood... a sign of the changing season. Snow levels should dip even lower this upcoming Tuesday and Wednesday. Snow accumulations could occur down to about 6,500-7,500 feet. #ORwx
We had some healthy downpours across the Portland metro area yesterday evening. My wife took an interesting photo around 7:30pm of a possible wall cloud near the Columbia River. @NWSPortland
New fire burning in the Willapa Hills (southwest Washington) will probably push more smoke into the Portland / Vancouver metro area.
The infrastructure is much different in Alabama compared to Oregon & Washington. Many homes and schools don’t have AC in the Pacific Northwest.

Sheesh.. very warm night in the Cascades.. particularly in the foothills. Some spots only dropped into the low to mid 80s.
Bleh... this heat wave is taking an ugly turn in the Pacific Northwest. Conditions are turning real smoky along & west of the Cascades. This is our view of Mt. Hood (or lack thereof) from @skibowl.

Meteorological summer has ended (June-August). It was the 5th warmest on record in Portland. Records go back to 1940. In Astoria it was the 4th warmest. July was scorching hot, but just slightly warmer than normal in June & August

Good morning & happy Wednesday! It's a cold start to the day, especially in the higher elevations and east of the Cascades. Even with this cool start, temps should still rise to about 80 degrees from Portland to Salem.
