It has not been a pretty day in Chico today. Temperatures have been stuck in the 50s all day, nearly three-quarters of an inch of rain has fallen since yesterday evening, and the winds have been brisk from the southeast around 15 to 20 mph. This is a storm we would experience in February or March, but not in May. Chico should see high temps around 82 degrees with plenty of sunshine this time of year. Fortunately, we should see improving conditions over the next 24 hours as this massive low pressure system slowly trudges to the east. Dry, sunny conditions will be the rule for Thursday and Friday, while a slight chance of showers (along with partly sunny skies) are expected for both Saturday and Sunday. Dry weather returns for the beginning of next week. High temperatures should range from the lower 70s to around 80. Here are the details for Chico from the National Weather Service:
Tonight: Showers. Low around 45. South southeast wind 6 to 14 mph becoming east northeast. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New rainfall amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible.
