“How Low Can They Go?“

Observing morning temperatures recently, I feel like I’ve been watching a limbo contest. “How low can they go?” Pretty low, actually…
In the midst of a week with increasing high temperatures, morning low temperatures have been generally decreasing each day. Reasons for this seemingly curious dichotomy include dry air and dry ground. Substances with low moisture content tend to heat up fast and cool down fast. You can bet we’ll have hot high temperatures for the next several days as the August sunshine will boost afternoon temperatures well into the 90s. But for the next few nights, I expect temperatures to cool way down to the 60s for lows inland.
Feel free to respond to this blog! I look forward to reading your comments.
Take care,
Gannon
