PORTLAND, Oregon — We've had a lot of calm, dry weather over the last several hours. What a treat.
Showers will come and go Thursday. And Northwest weather will be a lot calmer than recent days.
A new storm spins up off the coast Thursday night. It won’t be as strong as the recent bomb cyclone, but it will be a little closer to the coast.
The coast will see windy conditions overnight Thursday, but the valleys should be spared strong winds.
Look for steady rain on Friday to transition to showers.
The weekend brings showers and sunbreaks, which continues into Monday.
After that, it looks like the region will be treated to dry weather for the days leading up to Thanksgiving.
Have a great Thursday.
