more rain

There is more rain coming to an already drenched Chico. Today Chico picked up about a quarter of an inch of rain, with more on the way overnight tonight and tomorrow. Rain turns into showers tomorrow night, tapering off Tuesday morning. The next chance for rain comes late in the week, but right now that storm looks rather weak. No major storms are on the horizon at this time. It looks like there will finally be some sunny days this upcoming week, something Chico hasn't seen in over a week. Over the next few weeks, spring will start to make an appearance here in the Sacramento Valley, with the plum trees, almond trees, and cherry trees all beginning to bloom around mid-February (right around Valentine's Day- how romantic). This cold, gray weather we've been experiencing will soon be a memory. I can't wait until May, when I finally graduate from college! Here's the NWS seven day forecast for Chico:
