Yesterday did get as warm as they said it would and it was absolutely lovely! 65 F and sunny all day with a light breeze and partly cloudy. Today is much of the same except warmer and with stronger winds and more clouds. These clouds are higher in the atmosphere than yesterdays, I believe they are altocumulus clouds because they are fleecy looking and stretched in bands. Right now we are still under a high pressure system and warm sunny weather will be a trend for the week. There is a collection of systems on the southern edge of the Rockies that may get to us by Wednesday and give us a chance for rain again, but for the most part, the wind will continue to come from the south and west this week and bring warm, dry air.
