Chico saw its first below 90 degree day in quite a while today- 89 was the high. The Delta breeze kicked in this morning, transporting the cooler marine air from the Pacific Ocean right on up the Sacramento Valley. It's Mother Nature's air conditioning, as I like to call the Delta breeze. Unfortunately, it won't last. Tomorrow through the weekend we're right back to the heat, with highs in the mid to upper 90s. At least the nights will be pleasant- mainly in the mid 60s. You can crank up the air conditioning during the afternoon (say around 2pm), then turn it off and open the windows before retiring to bed. That's the nice thing about summer in Northern California- lack of oppressive humidity. One can sleep quite comfortably at night with temps in the 60s and low humidity levels. Here's the hot forecast for Chico from the National Weather Service:
