Forecast for Tuesday, February 25, 2020

I bet your high school yearbook says you were likely to be slightly cooler than average. 😎 Certainly we are living in such a time. You know. Until Thursday. Then it’s time for the above average to much above average folks to shine! Early next week is for those of you who were voted, “most likely to crash snow levels” as a cold storm system heads our way. OK weather nerds, let’s take a closer look at the forecast!

Sunny and breezy fo’ sheezy today and tomorrow. North winds 10-20 mph this afternoon and east winds 15-20 gusting to 30 tomorrow. Highs in the mid 60s with lows in the mid 30s.

Our old pal high pressure builds in for a terrific warm up into the weekend. A few high clouds from time to time for possible sunrise and sunset enhancement. Mostly sunny Thursday low 70s. Partly sunny Friday upper 70s. Upper 70s to near 80ish Saturday. Mostly sunny mid 70s Sunday. A chance for showers Monday low 60s. Enjoy!

Forecast for Monday, February 24, 2020

Looks like the robots are indicating a cold and wet storm next week. It is a ways away so consider it a hint of things to come. A foreshadow of what might be. In the meantime we have to suffer through some warm Winter weather. It’s not easy being the envy of the rest of the country. (or being cheesy) The struggle is real. Here are the future numbers and we’ll see what reality brings.

Sunny and warmer today upper 60s. (yesterday was 59) Low 40s tonight. Upper 60s tomorrow and Wednesday. Warmer still as we head into the weekend. Mid 70s Thursday. Upper 70s Friday. Near 80ish Saturday! Mid 70s Sunday. Enjoy and stay tuned!

Sunny upper 60s tomorrow, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Mid 70s Thursday. Upper 70s Friday and Saturday!!! Enjoy 🙂

Forecast for Saturday, February 22, 2020

Think it’ll rain? No worries. Just Scotch Guard the kids! Tropical moisture streaming northward into the area ahead of a cold front is bringing widespread rain with everyone (pretty much) getting in on the action this morning. By this afternoon the current blob (technical jargon for ya on a Saturday) of rain will move north and east. As the front moves through this afternoon we should see another round of copious showers with embedded thunderstorms. Some of the storms could have locally heavy rain and even strong winds. With this mornings rain combined with locally heavy rain this afternoon we could see local flooding. Finally a chance to kayak the Rillito! Maybe. (disclaimer. it was a joke. never kayak the Rillito) Rain lingers into tonight finally decreasing after midnight. High today in the low 60s. Low tonight in the low 40s.

The Sun returns tomorrow with a high in the low 60s. Upper 60s Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Mid 70s Thursday. Upper 70s Friday. Enjoy!

Forecast for Thursday, February 20, 2020

Happy Friday Eve! It makes the weekend seem closer…

There’s a storm brewin’! (coffee maybe?), and it’s headed our way. Prime time looks to be Saturday morning. Wind, rain, and even some thunderstorms possible with this one. Suspected rainfall amounts have been adjusted higher by the robots (computer models) once again! Valley locations could see a quarter to three quarters of an inch of rain with isolated amounts over an inch. Bring it! The mountains should get more, but we are talking rain and not snow. Could be fun! Here’s the best guesstimation of the future (echo; future future future)

Increasing clouds and breezy today. High near 80ish! Mostly cloudy tonight upper 40s. Mostly cloudy and windy tomorrow with ESE winds 15-25 mph gusting over 35 and a high in the low 70s. The rain chances commence tomorrow night with the best chances toward morning into Saturday. 100% chance for rain Saturday with a few thunderstorms thrown in for good measure and a high in the upper 60s. Lingering showers Saturday night with clear skies by Sunday. Sunny Sunday low 60s. Upper 60s Monday. Near 70ish Tuesday. Low 70s Wednesday. Enjoy!
