Do you know what the hottest weather temperature ever recorded in Portland, Oregon is in the month of April? The answer to that weather trivia question will probably shock and astound you as April is still in Spring and the record high temperature for the month is incredibly hot.



The average daily temperature in Portland in the month of April is just 48.4 degrees. The record hottest temperature for the month of April is way hotter than the daily average.

  • 90 degrees on April 20, 1906


That's right the hottest weather temperature ever recorded in Portland in the month of April is a sweltering 90 degrees. That record hottest temperature for the month of was set on April 20, 1906, and it was matched three more times on April 23, 1910, April 27, 1926 and on April 30, 1998. 

How unusual is a 90 degree weather temperature day in Portland in April? Since 1891, the four record hottest dates listed above are the only times when the temperature reached 90 degrees in the city in the month of April. 

Days when the temperature reaches 80 degrees in Portland in April are more common but still pretty rare. When was the last time it was 80 degrees in Portland in April? I believe that was on April 19, 2016, when it was 89 degrees.

Will the temperature rise to 90 degrees this April in Portland, Oregon? Since it's only happened four times since 1891 it's not likely the city will see a 90 degree weather temperature day this April but a 80 degree weather temperature day could certainly happen this year.
