Detailed Forecast Discussion: Well today is our last warm day for at least about a week as the polar jet stream brings down some late season arctic air for early April. We should start off today in the upper 60's to around 70 degrees. Clouds will be on the increase as the afternoon wears on. It will be a good …

Detailed Forecast Discussion: The California Low has not moved much in the last 24 hours. It's current placement is still near Los Angeles (below). While the system will in no way move northward toward us today, it will bring in some lift out ahead of it later this afternoon and early evening. That will lead to sunshine to start our …

Detailed Forecast Discussion: The California Low has moved only slightly overnight coming ashore near Los Angeles. Before the sun went down yesterday, GOES-East was showing the impressive low spinning offshore with deep wrap-around moisture flowing into the Desert Southwest (and of course, those mostly sunny skies over Colorado and all of the snowpack in the Mountains!).

Part of this could be related to a wave cloud developing in the west-southwest flow. Guidance, however, is indicating that sunshine should become more prevalent as the day wears on. Highs today may …

Detailed Forecast Discussion: Well, this weekend is a great way to reverse the effects of the snow we had on Thursday. Any remembrance of the snow is long gone as temperatures rise into the 50's today and 60's tomorrow. Over the course of these next few days, an area of low pressure will once again be setting up over the …
