The timeframe for these cooler temperatures may be delayed a bit. It looks like early next week we'll see milder, more seasonable temperatures as the Delta breeze begins to pump up cooler marine air from the south. For the next few days temps will still hover in the mid 90s. Today was noticeably cooler, with the high in Chico reaching only 93 degrees. This was a drastic difference from yesterday, when the high was 98 degrees. Monsoonal moisture is flowing northward from the Gulf of California, resulting in higher humidity and thunderstorm chances over the Sierra Nevada mountains. If traveling to the mountains this weekend, keep an eye to the sky for a thunderboomer or two. Otherwise, it is typical summer weather here in the Northstate. Here is the detailed forecast from the National Weather Service:
Tonight: A 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms before 11pm. Mostly clear, with a low around 64. Northwest wind between 3 and 9 mph.
