It's truly amazing how much rain we had over the past couple of days! Get a load of this! My weather station's original 1-hour rainfall record was 1.11" set on 4-17-2011. We broke that record just the other day on 6-22-2012, coming in with 1.29" of rain. And now only a dew days later, today 6-25-2012, we broke it again!, coming in with 1.35" and still climbing!

[TWCCraig]

Increasing warmth over the next couple of days.

Forecast Highs and Lows:

Today: 62°F/82°F
Thursday: 65°F/86°F
Friday: 74°F/92°F
Saturday: 75°F/90°F
Sunday: 73°F/89°F

[TWCCraig]

We got a heat wave on our hands over the next couple of days. Unfortunately, it's hard to predict how hot it will get. A SW wind is a on-shore flow, which may keep temperatures down a little. While inland places will be approaching 100°F, coastal locations should be in the low to mid 90's. Also, humidity will increase, but there isn't much confidence in how much. Dew Points are supposed to increase into the mid and upper 60's (possible some 70's if a sea breeze kicks in). The NWS forecast calls for a drop in dew points on Friday and Saturday, during the afternoon hours. It is uncertain how much the ocean will effect us over the next couple of days. If the sea breeze isn't much of a factor, temperatures will be higher, but humidity will be lower; if a slight sea breeze kicks in, it will be slightly cooler but humidity will increase.
