Keeping temperatures cool and skies cloudy

A wedge builds in Friday as winds will be out of the north and east. This will cause the air to bank against the mountains and keep temperatures in the 60s to close out the workweek.

Warming up next week

By the end of the weekend, the wedge moves out. Our winds will shift and become out of the south. This will provide warm and humid air for several days.

2024 has featured really warm averages

The warm trend this year is not breaking any time soon. So far, 2024 has been the 3rd warmest year on record!
