If you have to be out and about early this morning, be aware that there could be some patchy freezing fog and/or black ice on the roads, especially in sheltered areas and in the foothills. I live in the foothills east of Chico, and the road I live on was extremely slick and frosty yesterday morning. Basically what I'm trying to say is: Be careful while driving.The sun never came out in Chico yesterday due to the very thick overcast blanketing the valley. It looked like a sea of white from my house, with the Coast Ranges poking through the dense fog layer. I took a couple of pics with my new camera, and as soon as I can figure out how to download them, I'll post them on my next blog entry. The National Weather Service states that there will be sun this afternoon, but we'll have to wait and see. Currently there is thick fog in Chico and surrounding areas, with temps ranging from the upper 20s to mid 30s. Temps will be chilly this weekend- only in the 40s (we should be around 54 degrees this time of year). Temps will begin to moderate as we get into next week. A series of storms will begin to affect our weather by the middle of next week, and we could see rain well into next weekend. Of course, all this could change, so keep checking back for updates. For now, here's what the NWS is saying for Chico:
Today: Patchy fog before 10am. Otherwise, cloudy, then gradually becoming mostly sunny, with a high near 45. Light south wind.
Tonight: Partly cloudy, with a low around 31. East southeast wind at 5 mph becoming northwest.
