A pause to the rain on the first day of May, Portland area prepares for more

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) -- The first day of May brings warmer and drier skies back to the Portland-Vancouver area on Wednesday.

A few sun breaks will help temperatures warm into the low 60s Wednesday, but this stint of dry weather is short-lived. Clouds will start to increase during the afternoon hours as rain approaches. Wednesday evening's wet weather will continue through Thursday morning.
