Usually this time of year Chico still sees high temperatures well into the 90s. But, after a high yesterday of just 87 degrees, Chico will see highs only in the low 70s today under mainly overcast skies. That's another anomaly for this time of year- usually September is a very sunny month, but today the sunshine will be limited. There's even a slight chance we could see a stray shower, but don't hold your breath on that one. The sun returns in full abundance tomorrow as temperatures warm up in response to the sunshine. However, it appears that in the short term there will be no scorching hot temperatures. In fact, temps will be below average for the next seven days. Very nice! I'm hoping this cooler than average trend continues well into the fall. I wonder if La Nina has any role in that? Here's the detailed seven day forecast for Chico from the National Weather Service:
Today: A 30 percent chance of showers. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 72. South wind between 6 and 8 mph.
