buddy, can you spare a raindrop?

Because, apparently, Mother Nature cannot. There has been a warming trend the past several days since my last post (sorry, been fighting a nasty cold). That warming trend will continue this weekend, making it feel more like March than December. Highs by Monday will be in the mid 60s, a full ten degrees warmer than usual. There is a SLIGHT chance of a shower Wednesday night and Thursday, thanks to a cold front originating from the Gulf of Alaska. While this cold front may not bring the abundant moisture we so desperately need, it will knock the high temps down to at or slightly below normal by next Thursday. In the meantime, keep praying for rain. Here's Chico's seven day forecast from the National Weather Service: Today Sunny, with a high near 61. North northeast wind around 5 mph becoming calm in the morning. Tonight Mostly clear, with a low around 34. Northeast wind around 6 mph. Sunday Sunny, with a high near 61.
