PORTLAND, Ore. - If you liked Saturday's weather, you are in luck.

A repeat is in store for the Portland-area Sunday - complete with high temperatures reminiscent of January, snowflakes dusting the valley floor and plenty of hail for good measure.

The snow level is expected to hover between 500 and 1,000 feet overnight into Sunday, with 1 to 2 inches sticking and eventually melting at those elevations, according to KATU Weathercaster Julia Radlick.

Those living in lower elevations will probably see the flakes flying in the air but that's all, she said.

The high temperature won't likely climb out of the 40s either in the Willamette Valley as residents see a mix of rain, hail, lightning and sunshine, Radlick said.

In the eastern Columbia River Gorge, there is a freeze warning in effect until Monday, with temperatures dipping into the 20s overnight.

And, of course, the Cascades and Coast Range will see more of the white stuff.

It all comes just a week after the temperature reached 78 degrees.

But Radlick said the temperatures will one day rise again - but it probably won't be until Wednesday or Thursday.

Until then, you'll have to enjoy the last vestiges of winter.

Forecasters have been talking about the possibility of weekend snow for a few days now and the low temperatures are supposed to stick around until Monday.

So when's the best chance we could see snow?

According to KATU Meteorologist Rod Hill, the best chance will be overnight to early morning for the next few days as temperatures drop down to the 30s during those hours.

But if you sleep in, you're likely to miss it. Daytime temperatures are expected to warm up to the 40s, meaning we'll probably see rain and maybe some hail.

So how much snow can we expect?

According to KATU Meteorologist Rod Hill, more than a dusting at 500 feet is certainly a possibility and snow accumulation 1,200 feet and higher is expected - from 2 to 6 inches.

The Cascade passes will see about 10 to 18 inches of snow and in the Coast Range, folks will see anywhere from a rain/snow mix at the lower elevations to 6 inches of snow as you get higher.
