Portland, OR – A mix of rain and snow is set to impact Portland throughout the first week of February, creating potentially hazardous driving conditions. With snow levels dropping as low as 200 feet at times, commuters should prepare for slick roads and reduced visibility.

According to the National Weather Service, snow showers are expected early Monday before turning into rain. Temperatures will hover in the low 40s during the day and dip into the 20s at night. Snow accumulation remains low, but higher elevations may see more significant totals.

Tuesday and Wednesday will bring a similar pattern of morning snow showers followed by afternoon rain, with temperatures struggling to reach 40°F. By Thursday, another round of rain and snow is likely, keeping roads wet and icy during morning and evening commutes.

Drivers should allow extra time for travel and monitor road conditions, especially on higher elevation routes. Pedestrians should also exercise caution on slick sidewalks.

With winter weather persisting throughout the week, residents should stay updated on forecasts and prepare for fluctuating conditions.
