You’ll really have to earn the candy tonight as you fight a jerk NNW wind. Winds will pick up over the next few hours, gusting up to 20mph. As of 6:30p, temperatures are in the mid 40s, but will quickly drop to the upper 30s by 8pm, but with the wind it’ll feel like the lower 30s. Might want to hit a light jog in-between houses to keep warm.
The cold front has pushed thru and brought some chilly (chili?) weather. The light rain will shortly end, leaving us with a dry, jerk north wind.
First freezes of the season mean Freeze Warnings have been issued, 3am to 9am Tuesday, and again 10pm Tuesday thru 10am Wednesday. “Frost and freeze conditions will kill crops, other sensitive vegetation and possibly damage unprotected outdoor plumbing.” Prepare as needed.
The latest drought monitor update come out today and did not have any encouraging results, unsurprisingly. The southern half of WillCo. is now under a Severe Drought (2/4), with the rest of us remaining in a Moderate Drought (1/4). With our lack of any recent rainfall, this isn’t a shocker. But is there any relief coming?
Another pleasant day and tomorrow will be more of the same. Still a lot warmer that what we are used to this time of year.
Rain chances finally come back around Friday.
The HRRR model (above) shows showers creepin’ in Friday AM and staying on/off throughout the day. Any rain we see would be light, so not thinking any rainouts.
