Warm till Wed…

Well more than a dozen records were smashed as temp. reached into the 30’s in many parts of S.Alta. this aft. Tomorrow and Tue. look to be repeat performances, albeit with a small chance of a t-shower Tue. eve. The latter part of the week will be cooler, with showers likely Wed. and Fri. Your garden will welcome the moisture after all this warmth!
