Record heat coming to Pacific Northwest this weekend, triple-digit temperatures possible

The dip in the jet stream responsible for the ongoing cool weather across the West will gradually be replaced with a strong ridge of high pressure aloft. This transition will send high temperatures soaring 30 to 40 degrees warmer than earlier this week. By Sunday, temperatures across the Northwest will be in the 80s and 90s.
