It's Getting Warmer !!

From KRBC Chief Meteorologist Randy Turner ..

Summer warmth just doesn't want to go away. And the wind we haven't had to deal with lately returns this weekend.

Spinning off the coasts of Oregon and northern California is a very large low pressure area, pretty common to see them out there this time of year. This one is forecast to cross the Rocky Mountains and gather steam over the weekend.

What it means for our weather is gusty wind this weekend, Saturday and Sunday, and by Monday, just a slight chance for thunderstorms. We are actually going to be on the southern edge of the system but it should have enough upper level wind power to create at least a few scattered storms around our area Monday and Tuesday. I'm leaving the rain chance at 10% Monday and 20% Tuesday into Wednesday. Until Monday, dry weather stays in the forecast along with warm afternoons.

Wednesday Night: Clear and 56. East wind at 5.
Thursday: Sunny and 86. Southeast wind 5 to 10.
Thursday Night: Clear and 61.
Friday: Partly cloudy and 89.
Saturday: Partly cloudy, windy and 90.
Sunday: Partly cloudy, windy and 87.
Monday: Partly cloudy, 10% chance for thunderstorms, high of 83.
Tuesday: Partly cloudy, 20% chance for thunderstorms, high of 83.
