Temperatures remain warm with lows in the lower 60s. A weak weather disturbance passing overhead late tonight and early Sunday means another gray start.

FIRST ALERT: Tracking evening thunderstorms, cooling down Thursday (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The heat is intense again Wednesday afternoon from Portland northward, but clouds and fire smoke has kept areas south a bit cooler. We’re topping out in the mid-upper 90s.
