It has been much cooler the past couple of days in Chico. The high temperature yesterday was 88 degrees; the high so far today has been 85. That's about 13 degrees below where we were over the weekend. Milder air will continue to remain in the forecast for the next few days as a southerly flow increases both the marine air and the humidity. Thunderstorms are still affecting the crest of the Sierra Nevada mountains today, just as they have for the better half of a week. Monsoonal flow has travelled northward from the desert southwest all the way into the Washington Cascades today. So, if you're heading into the mountains, especially the far northern Sierra Nevada and the Cascades, expect some isolated but slow moving storms. Hopefully these storms won't produce much lightning and spark some serious wildfires! Here's the latest forecast for Chico from the National Weather Service:
