Time to Talk Rain

After highs pushing 80 degrees today and tomorrow a change is in store for the weekend. At this point expect temperatures to stay far to warm for snow, with the rain/snow line being above 7,000 feet. Temperatures will drop down into the 50s for both Saturday and Sunday with a decent chance of rain both days and Saturday night. Exact timing and amounts are still to be worked out, but any moisture is good moisture!

How about some climate talk as well...
Last weeks storm made quite a dent in our precipitation deficit we found ourselves in just a few weeks ago. The airport (where our official records are taken) has recorded 3.62 inches of precip year to date - 1.33 inches of that came last weekend. We are now only 0.09 inches below average for this time of year, with many locations in the area that picked up 3+ inches from the storm probably above average! Hopefully we will add to these totals this weekend!
