Monday, October 18th

Good morning. It was a beautiful weekend in the Fairbanks area. We had plenty of sunshine and some mild temperatures. Saturday's low was 6 degrees, but it quickly warmed up to around 30 degrees. On Sunday, we had a low of 17 degrees but warmed to 36 degrees.

Today, we are starting off with cloudy skies and temperatures in the upper 20's. The NWS is calling for a chance of snow showers today through Tuesday night. Temperatures today should top out in the 30's. Lows tonight will be between 10 and 20 degrees. Tuesday should see temperatures between 30 and 35.

The rest of the week looks fairly uneventful. We will have partly to mostly cloudy skies with temperatures between 25 and 30 during the day and 5 to 15 at night. There is no real threat of arctic air coming into the picture any time soon.

On a side note, the Climate Prediction Center comes out with it's 90 day outlook on Thursday. It should be interesting to see if it deviates from the last forecast.
