Has this week felt more like the June we all know weather-wise? I think so. I mentioned here last month while looking ahead toward June that it is usually a cloudy month as we transition from spring into summer.
Basically, we have a dominant pattern of onshore marine air, which brings us the morning clouds and afternoon sunshine. And sometimes they linger all day, like they did Wednesday.
The big event is on tap for Saturday in the Rose City, the Grand Floral Parade, and the weather looks like it will behave itself. That translates into more of those low clouds, and maybe some morning mist or drizzle and afternoon sun breaks. So, don a sweatshirt if going to the parade and you should be fine.
Historically, you can look back and see how things took shape with the weather. Last year, it was partly cloudy and 61 degrees at parade time, which actually is great for those that have to march several miles while entertaining the crowd along the way. Spectators can always bundle up accordingly.
