Typically people of Portland don’t count on sunny days until the fourth of July. Before then clouds and rain are normal. May will usually have a hot spell with temperatures in the 90s. But from Memorial Day through the fourth overcast skies and days with rain just make for a joke about knowing if it’s time for the Rose Festival.
This year is backwards. It feels comfortable. But hey it’s July! Wheres the sun and heat?
