Hot Now - But Major Changes for the Fall

From KRBC Chief Meteorologist Randy Turner ....

The heat wave will persist through the upcoming weekend, dangerously hot so take necessary precautions.

That being said, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration issued a news release today concerning El Nino. You may be familiar with this phenomenon that tends to increase our chance for rain, which we need. Hopefully this shift in the weather pattern leads to a rainy Fall and Winter around here.

For now, however, hot and dry.

Thursday Night: Clear and 80. South wind 5 to 10.

Friday: Sunny and 103. South wind 10 to 20.

Saturday: Mostly sunny and 101.

Sunday: Partly cloudy and 100.
