A low pressure system will remain over the coast and much of the Portland metro area into the weekend contributing to an onshore flow and periods of cloudiness and rain through the weekend.

Wednesday promises to be one of the drier days with only a slight chance of isolated showers mixed in with sun breaks. High temperatures forecast for 73 degrees.

Stronger chances for showers move in on Wednesday night. Thursday morning looks wet at least through the lunch hour. By Thursday afternoon we could see some clearing. High of 70.

Friday looks similar to Thursday with a chance of showers, especially in the morning and a high of 71.

At this point the weekend is looking fairly clear with highs in the low 70s and not many chances for rain.
