It's Snowing in Portland!

Step outside and catch a snowflake on your tongue.

By Lizzy Acker

Our wet day streak may have been broken on Christmas by an unlikely dry day, but precipitation is all like, "Hey, guys, don't stop talking about me," and now, it is snowing right here in Portland on the valley floor!

The National Weather Service is reporting that at 1:53 pm it was 37 degrees and weather conditions were: "Light Rain Snow."

Phones agree:

Go outside and see for yourself! Is it still snowing? Could some post-Christmas miracle extend this into a snow week next week?

Probably not. Temperatures should rise to the low 40s by tomorrow. So no sledding but still! Get out there and see some snow!

Here's a short video of current conditions outside Pie Spot in Northeast Portland.

Willamette Week’s reporting has concrete impacts that change laws, force action from civic leaders, and drive compromised politicians from public office.
