Significant Cold Front with Some Precipitation Headed Our Way
Enjoy the warm, sunny weather. It is not going to last.
We have been talking about a cold front which will make it's way to our area starting later on the 4th. With that cold front we are talking about some precipitation as well.
Temperatures should bounce back around the 9th of the month and go above average again. I would probably wait on turning on your irrigation until at least then.
Here is a look at the forecast for Thursday evening (4/4):
This will be our best chance for precipitation and we will see at least a few flakes all the way down to the valley floor as the cold front moves through on Thursday night and Friday.
By the 11th of April, our temperatures should be back above average.
As we move later in the season, our storms will be weaker. However, Ma Nature always spins up a surprise when we least expect it.
As far as seasonal averages are concerned, we are now above average in precipitation for our 2nd straight year. Of course 3 years ago we were slightly below average.
