Hot Summer Pattern With Us This Week

From the KRBC Weather Lab and Chief Meteorologist Randy Turner ..

Even though it's back to school time for most area students Monday, and the thought of fall football is in the air, someone forgot to tell Mother Nature because it's going to be hot to finish out the last full week of August.

While we will have the potential for an isolated shower Monday, the trend for the rest of the week is for a high pressure ridge anchored over the Rockies to expand its grip on our weather which keeps it warm and dry.

I noticed a minor little system or disturbance which may try to dive into our area Wednesday into Thursday but the chance for rain with it is too slim to mention at this point.

Tropical Depression Fay helps keep a northeast wind blowing here through Monday, but any rain from the super-charged rainmaker stays well east of our area.

Bottom line for us, mainly warm and dry this week.

Sunday Night: Isolated evening showers, otherwise partly cloudy to clear with a low of 68.

Monday: Partly cloudy, isolated shower possible, high 91. Northeast wind 10 to 15.

Tuesday through Thursday: Partly cloudy, low 90's.
