After two straight days of tying the daily record high (89° and 88° for Saturday and Sunday, respectively), a cold front has moved thru and cooled us down to closer to average for this time of the year.
We’ll have some flurries (maybe some graupel) flying around today, because why not. It was 79° yesterday.
No impacts expected. Maybeeee a dusting on some elevated surfaces or grassy areas, but again – it was 79° yesterday and most flakes will splat:melt on contact with the ground.
Before we get into the severe talk, today thru Sunday afternoon will be nice. Well above average temperatures, with plenty of sun.
A Wind Advisory will go into effect starting at 1p on Sunday. Wind gusts before the storms may reach up to 40 mph. Be sure to secure any outdoor furniture – also not a bad idea to take care of any lingering tree branches that may be damaged from the ice storm if you are able to.
Before we get into the severe weather talk, I will briefly hit on today and Saturday. Which there’s not much to talk about, the rest of today and Saturday will be quite nice. Cold temps tonight, but we warm up nicely on Saturday with highs in the mid 70s – no rain.
It will feel absolutely nothing like early March today. As of 11a we are already at 79°, likely on our way to breaking the daily record high of 83° – around 25° above average.
There’s a very low chance a quick shower passes thru this afternoon – but most of us will stay dry, if not all of us.
Our abnormally warm stretch of weather continues. Today (Thursday) and Friday both near 80°, which will threaten the daily high records. We “cool” down a bit on Sunday post-cold front, but warm right back up into the mid to upper 70s by early next week.
We’ll be on daily record temperature watch over the next several days, starting today.
Wednesday –> Forecast = 80° | Record = 84° (1976)
Thursday –> Forecast = 80° | Record = 80° (1910)
Rain should start to taper off this afternoon, clearing out by this evening. Clouds will hang around all day, keeping temperatures down all day. Today will be our “coolest” day for the foreseeable future.
High temperatures will be well above average this week, nearly 20-25° above our average highs by the end of the week – threatening daily record highs.
How about that – groundhog.
Rain chances return early Monday morning, continuing on/off thru the afternoon. Just some light showers, with rainfall totals only around 0.25″.
Very nice weather ahead for this weekend – especially considering it is late February.
Highs in the mid 60s today and Sunday, we are treated with low 70s on Saturday. Mornings will still be fairly cool. No rain expected.
