ONE MORE DRY DAY
This morning started freezing in many local towns. The warm up will be pleasant with plenty of sunshine and highs in the mid-50s. We don’t have a Red Flag Warning, as winds will be lighter today, but there’s still a high concern for brush fires due to the lower humidity and continued dry conditions.
FINALLY SOME RAIN!
After weeks (months really!) of dry weather, we have steady rain set to arrive Thursday morning during the AM commute. You can expect a wet day as showers linger through Friday and possibly into Saturday. We’re forecasting 1-2 inches of rain, which will help ease some of the dryness. However, while this is certainly welcome, it won’t make much of a dent in the ongoing drought conditions we’ve been facing.
By the end of the week, temperatures will cool down to more seasonable levels, with highs in the low 50s. While the rain will help with the fire risk and dry conditions, it’s clear that we need a lot more to fully recover from the drought.
