Good Morning from KRBC Meteorologist Chris Whited...* Mostly sunny and very hot for this Thursday as temperatures reaches the upper 90s. I think some areas may see their first 100° day of 2010! A cold front arrives overnight and Friday morning knocking the hotter temperatures out of here and cooling us back down into the upper 70s and cooling overnight lows back into the low 50s by tomorrow night. We remain mostly sunny for the day on Friday.
* The Weekend: Partly cloudy on Saturday and cool with highs in the lower 70s. Clouds will be on the increase for Saturday night with a slight chance of rain overnight. Warmer on Sunday for Mother's Day as highs climb back into the 80s under a mostly cloudy sky. There is a slight chance for showers and thunderstorms as well.
* Next Week: Partly cloudy with an isolated storm possible on Monday with highs into the lower 90s. We remain in the lower 90s for Tuesday and partly cloudy. Temperatures drop back into the middle 80s by Wednesday. Overnight lows will hold into the 60s.
