…VERY COLD TEMPERATURES THIS WEEK…

Temperatures will remain well below normal for most of this week.
Overnight lows for most lower elevations will remain in the 20s
with a few locations dipping into the teens Tuesday and Wednesday
nights. Afternoon high temperatures will struggle to reach very
far beyond the lower 30s, if at all, Tuesday and Wednesday.

What does this mean…
With these very cold temperatures, frostbite and hypothermia will
occur much faster. Wind chills will be particularly low in the
western Columbia River Gorge and the east Portland metro where
east winds will make it feel especially cold Tuesday night into
Wednesday. If outdoors, remember to dress in layers and cover
exposed skin.

Take precautions to protect pets and livestock from the cold as
well.

Uncovered pipes will also be susceptible to freezing and
bursting.

A slow moderating temperature trend is expected to begin on
Thursday.
