Sunday: Summer as it should be!

A fine day was experienced in both S. and N. Alta., with far n. areas once again reporting the warmest temps., in the low 30’s. Sun. will be very similar to today, with the exception that scat t-showers could develop late in the eve. This will lead to cooler and more unsettled conditions until later next week, with scat. showers, brisk winds, and aft. high’s in the low 20’s. Drier, milder weather should return by Folk Festival weekend, music lovers.
