Synopsis – TUE MAR 17 2026

An anomalously strong ridge of high pressure (~595 dm) will move over the Western US this week. As such, this will allow temps to soar in record territory. So daily records are likely Tuesday thru Friday. Your temps will then cool just a bit Saturday and Sunday, as high pressure weakens, but should remain 10 – 15 degrees average…DMATT
