This morning, the Plateau is doing Plateau things – squeezing out some snow showers. For us? Nothing, except maybe a stray flurry or two. Certainly, no impacts.
Next chance of precipitation will be Friday afternoon/evening as we get another clipper system that swings thru.
Temperatures generally around average for this time of year. Tuesday and Thursday being the exceptions, with one day having above-average temperatures, and the other having below average.
Only real shot at some precipitation this week continues to be Wednesday.
If you’ve stepped outside today, you’ll notice a big difference in the temperature compared to the low 70s we got a couple of days ago. The pesky NW breeze isn’t helping anything either.
Some additional drizzle will be possible thru the afternoon today. Clouds are likely to stick around for most, if not all of the day.
A cold front will move thru Sunday morning, marking the beginning of our colder temperatures. The also means some gusts around 20 mph will be common throughout the day tomorrow.
We no longer are outlooked for any severe weather probabilities for today. The question of “will any CAPE (storm fuel) show up?” has been answered – and the answer is no.
We’ll be dry thru this early evening – likely we’ll see some decent sun as well as we try and tie the daily record high of 71° today.
Some of our thinking has changed for this upcoming event, particularly regarding the round of storms arriving early Friday morning.
“Round One” – 3a thru 8a Friday Morning
Now that the high-res models have come into range, it appears that this first round of storms may end up carrying a low-end severe threat.
Before we jump into the heavy rainfall and maybe severe weather talk, I would like to highlight the well above average temperatures we’ll see today thru Friday. Our record daily high for Thursday and Friday is 71°, so we’ll likely either tie or come very close to breaking it both days. Our low of 63° on Friday is expected to shatter the daily record warmest low temp of 59° set in 1880.
Clouds will be fairly pesky today, lingering for a while. Regardless, we’ll still have comfortable temperatures as highs warm into the mid 60s.
Temps well above average will continue thru Friday. We’ll get close to our daily record high Thursday and Friday (71°).
Today marks the beginning of our warm stretch of weather. Highs in the 60s thru Friday, well above average for this time of year.
Rain chances return on Thursday, more likely so during the back half of the day. No hazardous weather expected on Thursday.
Today is the last somewhat chilly day for a while, although we’ll be slightly above average.
Monday thru Friday we’ll be nothing short of warm – even near record warmth Wednesday, Thursday, Friday (record high is 71° all of these days).
