potential pattern shift?

Wow, has it been warm in Chico the past few days, with high temperatures pushing the 70 degree mark. Not record territory, but close. It continues to be dry and mild, but this weather pattern could change by the middle of next week. Computer forecast models show a dip in the jet stream around Tuesday and Wednesday of next week, possibly steering stormy weather our way. We'll have to wait and see, but for now it looks promising that we'll get at least some precipitation next week. For now, expect a continuation of the warm and sunny weather we've been experiencing. Here are the details from the National Weather Service:

Tonight: Areas of frost after 1am. Otherwise, mostly clear, with a low around 29. Light northwest wind.

Friday: Areas of frost before 10am. Otherwise, sunny, with a high near 62. Light north northwest wind.
