Episode Details

Portland’s sweltering heat just hit a new record — with temps soaring into the upper 90s and even 100 degrees, fueled by relentless humidity and wildfire smoke choking the air. Heat advisories cover the Willamette Valley and western Washington, with overnight lows barely dipping into the low 70s, priming the stage for another scorcher Wednesday. Add in unhealthy air quality alerts and the ever-present danger of thunderstorms sparking new fires — especially under Red Flag Warnings in southern Oregon — and it’s a dangerous combo. But relief is on the way: by Thursday, highs will drop 15 degrees, and skies should clear, bringing cooler, calmer weather through the weekend.
