Today has been delightful, if a bit breezy. After a mostly cloudy start to the day, the afternoon revealed mostly sunny skies over Chico, with temps in the upper 70s to around 80 degrees. The winds have been a bit brisk, however, with southerly winds 15-20 mph. The winds and a passing cool front are why the temps have been cooler than normal today. It'll still remain pleasantly mild tomorrow, but the winds will still be strong. They will shift from the south/southeast to the northwest tomorrow, gusting to 25 mph. A big warmup occurs late this week into the weekend, with highs soaring into the mid 90s by Sunday. Another cool front is expected to sweep through the area by early next week, knocking the temps down several degrees into the mid 80s Tuesday and Wednesday. There has been a pronounced lack of heat so far this month of June, with only two days at 90 degrees. Even with the heat this weekend, it won't be as hot as what we could see this time of year, and the heat will be short-lived. I'm still sticking with my prediction of a noticeably cooler summer than average this summer. Here's the detailed seven day forecast for Chico from the National Weather Service:
