Yesterday was yet another in a string of dry and warm days in Chico, as the high temperature made it into the mid 60s. Expect cooler weather this weekend as a cold front slides to our north. We won't see any precipitation from this front, but it will tug at some colder air from the north, pulling it down into our area. This isn't an Arctic blast by any means, but temperatures will be cooler than what we've seen. The bigger weather pattern shift will occur next week. Forecast models continue to favor the jet stream moving southward, allowing storms to be steered our way. It is several days out, so this forecast warrants caution. However, we could see potentially strong storms by the end of next week packing heavy rain, mountain snow, and gusty winds. Stay tuned. For now, here's Chico's seven day forecast from the National Weather Service:
