Warm UP

TODAY'S NUMBERS:
HIGH: 35
LOW: 21

Temperatures are holding steady this eveing. We dropped down to 29 degrees around 6pm, but now KCI is back up to 31degrees... as South winds are picking up a bit.

We are still expecting the big warm up for Thursday and Friday, as the downsloping winds take over. (see Gary's blog below). We should also see plenty of sunshine, and our 850mb (5,000 feet up) temperatures are going to be very warm tomorrow:

We are expecting some of this air to mix down to the surface to help warm us up!

Things will change as we head into the weekend. We will cool off a bit for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. You can see how things will change by looking at this weekend's 850mb forecast below:

See the cooler air moving over us? This isn't Arctic air... it is Pacific air. So it will feel cooler but not extremely cold for the holiday weekend.

Next week we are seeing an even bigger warm up possible. It will be very interesting to see how this plays out!!
