August had its fair share of cool and warm stretches, including a few days in the 90s just last week. But when all was said and done, we finished with an equal number of days with above average and below average highs. Rainfall was a little lacking, as we saw only 2.22", nearly 2" below average for August.
We will continue to stay dry tonight despite a passing cold front around 1-2AM. This will bring a small uptick in cloud cover, but more importantly, flip our winds around to come from the North into tomorrow morning. Temperatures will drop into the low 60s and upper 50s under mostly clear skies tonight.
The Northerly winds tonight will keep us underneath a cool breeze tomorrow. Along with cooler air aloft and surface high pressure, this will aid in keeping temperatures in the mid-70s Sunday and Monday, slightly below the average high of 80°. Overnight lows will be even cooler, down near 50°, well below the average low of 59°.
Sunday night's cold front will also bring more dry and cool weather for the next few days. Moisture remains very low through mid-week, keeping rain chances few and far between. Zero rainfall expected through at least Wednesday.
Our next chances for rain don't swing in until Thursday. The influence of dry high pressure keeps us cool through Tuesday, but gradually temperatures will start to climb as the high pressure pulls away. Scattered showers and an isolated storm may be possible Thursday into Friday along our next cold front, but things cool off again for next weekend, back into the low 70s for highs.
