Tuesday:
Another day, another chance to break records when it comes to our temps. We’ll be making a run at near record heat for a third straight day. The record high is 86 in 2004, so we’ll keep a close eye on our temperatures!
From record highs to wet weather:
The good news? Starting Wednesday, our chances for rain start to increase, which is a much-needed change form the past few weeks. Streaming showers in from the coast will bring in a few storms from time to time.
Late Week Front:
We’re tracking a front that will knock us back into seasonable temperatures next week with a solid chance for rain. Of course, the timing can change - heavy rain, gusty winds and minor flooding are all possible.
Flooding and Drought at the Same Time?
That’s our big concern with the front we’re tracking late week. After flirting with record-breaking heat the past several days, our dirt is bone-dry. So any decent rain won’t soak in—it’ll have nowhere to go, raising the flood risk even if the totals don’t look extreme on paper.
Your extended forecast:
Behind Thursday’s cold front, temperatures will continue to fall back in the 70s. The next time we’re waking up in the 50s looks to be this weekend! There will also be an additional rainmaker next mid-week that could bring in some messy driving conditions if you’re heading out before the holiday.
