In Oregon and Washington, heat is expected to last for much of the week, challenging records.

Temperatures soared into the triple digits Sunday in northwest Oregon, including in Troutdale, where the high of 105 degrees broke the record for the date of 104 from 2002. Hillsboro tied its daily record high of 101. Portland’s high of 101 was one degree shy of a record, while Medford’s high of 106 fell two degrees short.

Eugene reached a high of 103 on Monday, topping the record high of 101 in 2010, but falling short of the all-time August record of 108. High temperatures are forecast near 100 Tuesday and Wednesday before gradually cooling late this week and weekend.
