Rain, wind, and cloudy.
Geez - I hope you re not that frantic when you re driving!No one knows for sure what the weather will be like in any given location on any particular day. You can find info about forecasts and average weather conditions at the Weather Channel s website. Or you could go to the local TV stations websites or newspaper websites to see a weather forecast for either Portland or Bellevue. On the Yahoo homepage there s a button for Weather , which will link you to a site where you can choose any city and track the weather each day.Have a safe trip!
An outlook 24 to 48 hours in this region is cannot be expected to have great accuracy. But the current forecast is for it to be more or less like it is now: windy and rainy at times, cool in the 40s and 50s, and overcast. Mountain snow is expected, but that isn t a factor between Portland and Bellevue. A mild Seattle-area windstorm might occur Saturday. See the second source.
Forecast for Portland is for rain most of the week, and that usually holds true for that entire stretch to the Seattle area.A 20-mile section of I-5 near Woodland gets very rainy for some reason when it s in the area.I ve driven it many times in rough weather, and it s no big deal--pretty good drainage on the highway except for the rare occasions when rivers overflow, but that s not happening this week. Just go with the flow of traffic and stay to the right if you want to go slower.
