There’s a ton of good information you can find here, acting as a reference for you as we close in on the winter months to come.

Winter will eventually come, but we’re far from it at this point. We did get a rather chilly start again during the morning, with temperatures in the mid-20s and low 30s. But that is in fact closer to average now, we’ve just been quite mild lately and getting used to it.

We’ll quickly warm through the morning and into the early afternoon, with west winds picking up and creating a breezy day. Temperatures have been closer to 70° lately, but today will be closer to 60° as we slowly cool down to end the week.

There is going to be another passing boundary that may produce a sprinkle or two as it passes, but most will be very dry. In fact, there’s a high risk of fire danger today with the winds and low relative humidity. And fires could start easily this afternoon and spread quickly.

Tonight and into the weekend, high pressure will build back in. Temperatures will warm back up quickly through next week!
