WeatherWatcher: Some 80º days next week - probably

Continued cool, and morning clouds, breaking to sun most days.

For the week ahead:
We will have continued morning clouds with afternoon sun on most days, we will probably have one or two days break the 80ºF mark.

Long range, we might have another dose of rain in about 12 days, then some more of the morning clouds and sun. I do not expect we will break the 90ºF mark at all this year. More on that in my ENSO (El Nino Southern Oscillation) report.

Highlights for July 30 to August 5
No measurable precipitation for the week of July 30th - August 5th, this is only the second whole week this entire year to have no measurable precipitation.

Over the past 2 weeks we've had 3 additional days break the 80ºF mark for a high temperature, we are now at 6 days at or above 80ºF. This is including the two days that reached 79.6ºF and 79.9ºF. If I strictly go by amount of days that reached 80.0ºF and above, without rounding to the nearest whole degree, we are at 4 days this summer, above 80ºF, since August 25th, 2010.
