Today's high temperature is forecast to reach 80°. That's according to the National Weather Service.
The temperature is expected to reach 80° or more this weekend as well. I guess Spring came a little bit early this year.
Also, the National Weather Service posted the following:
Early Spring Heat Wave in the Southwest U.S.; Critical Fire Weather in the Central Rockies and Plains
An unusual early Spring heat wave will continue much above-normal temperatures over the Southwest U.S. through early next week. Many locations are likely to set records for the highest-ever March temperature. Periods of critical fire weather will persist from the central Rockies to the central Plains through Saturday as gusty winds and low relative humidity continue.
Although we need more precipitation, the warmer temperatures are welcome as we've had to bundle up all Winter.
As for the coming summer, as the new roof expense put a big crimp in my finances, I may just take short and local vacation trips. Durango, Colorado is at the top of my list. It is only a few hours away.
