Tuesday, Apr. 3

Tonight, the temperature sat at 60° F, with a light breeze from the north and relatively clear skies marked with only a few strands of cirrus remaining of a day that began as overcast. These light upper atmospheric morsels mark the high pressure that is going to dominate for the next day or so as it rolls over us from the West. Tonight's sky will be clear, and the temperatures should get fairly cold as this high pushes cool northern air over us and deprives us of our night-time "heat blanket" of clouds which we've been enjoying the last few days. It will be cold in the morning (maybe even freezing!), but lows are already beginning to develop over the Rockies which look like they'll be taking this cold away soon.
