Thoughts on the Wind

From KRBC Chief Meteorologist Randy Turner ...

Concerning the complaints about the never ending gusty wind, I share your frustration. Daily, I hear comments about the wind and how it just won't go away. But I can't help but think ahead to July and August when we sometimes can't buy a breeze when it's 100 plus. It would be nice if we could just average out the wind to a consistent level year round, right?

Speaking of wind, it will be calm for a few short hours Monday night and that, combined with a very dry atmosphere, will lead to a potential for freezing temperatures early Tuesday morning.

The cold is short lived Tuesday as gusty southwest wind will help warm temperatures to the middle 70's. By Wednesday we're in the middle 80's.

The next chance for rain comes this weekend. It appears our best window of opportunity will run from late Saturday through mid-day Sunday. We'll keep you posted so check back again daily.

Take care, have a great day!

Randy
