Outside of some morning low clouds today we will see skies clear and remain that way the rest of the week with highs in the 80- to 85-degree range. How about that? Perhaps not warm enough for some of you but pleasant for most.
The weather pattern has not changed for a while with the really hot stuff remaining over the Four Corners region and a cool low-pressure system in the Gulf of Alaska. This keeps us in a southwesterly flow aloft and a northwest flow of air at the surface. Pretty typical summer stuff.
Looking ahead, I still don’t see any rain falling in our area nor any really hot weather either. How lucky can we get to avoid the hot stuff? Some forecast models suggest we could get warmer weather over the weekend, perhaps back into the low 90s, but we keep that at bay for now.
How does your garden grow? Excellent weather for all the backyard gardeners and fresh produce at the farmers markets. Fire danger remains high, so we take good care with that. Our drought continues to worsen as we are now locked into the driest period of the year.
