Today was beautiful- heating up this weekend

Today was lovely as far as the weather was concerned. Other than some morning clouds and afternoon haze, it was dry and partly sunny. Temperatures stayed in the 70s this afternoon, making it very comfortable to be outdoors. My husband and I drove into Upper Bidwell Park and did a brief hike this morning. It was very nice. It looks like it will warm up this weekend as high pressure strengthens over our region. Highs in the lower 90s will be likely by Sunday. Temps cool back down early next week to seasonal levels. It will continue to remain dry through the period. This weekend will be busy in Chico as Chico State holds its graduations. There will be thousands of familes in town to watch their sons and daughters, brothers and sisters graduate. Parking will be a nightmare, but hopefully these families will spend their money here and add to Chico's coffers. Here is the detailed forecast for Chico from the National Weather Service: Tonight: Mostly clear, with a low around 53. Light wind becoming north northwest between 14 and 17 mph. Winds could gust as high as 23 mph. Friday: Sunny, with a high near 83. North northwest wind between 7 and 10 mph. Friday Night: Mostly clear, with a low around 55.
