These northwest winds will not go away. The wind gusts in Chico today have been clocked at nearly 40 mph. Fortunately, the winds will die down by Friday. They will still linger into tomorrow, albeit weaker than today. It's all due to a storm system passing to our north into the Great Basin. That, coupled with high pressure trying to build in from the Pacific, has been causing the really windy weather. There's still a chance for showers next Monday, but Mother's Day should be fairly dry. Temps will be at or slightly below average through the next seven days. It should be a nice weekend to take Mom out for an alfresco lunch or walk in the park!
