All you have to do is look out the window today or venture out for a pleasant walk to notice that March arrived as a lamb weather-wise. What a beautiful weekend. Are we living right, or what?
Every weekend is a repeat, sunny and dry. It appears that trend will continue and next weekend could fare as well. We thought there was a small chance of more snow and colder temperatures in the mountains this week, but a fast-moving system from Canada will move through Monday. The bulk of it goes east of the Rockies as an Alberta Clipper: More snow and cold for the mid-section of the country.
The upper air will be cold enough Monday that any moisture falling will be snow down to low levels, say our foothills to the east. Rainfall will be light locally on its way to California. Expect frost in outlying areas as skies clear.
Sunny skies and dry weather will remain the rest of the week. Maybe some morning fog or low clouds here and there. Same ol’ story? Yep. That ridge of high pressure that was with us all winter wants to hang around, so I do not expect much moisture this first week of March. Maybe a southwesterly flow next week for rain.
