Sacramento is starting Wednesday clear and cool, with temperatures around 47 degrees early and a sunny afternoon with temperatures in the mid-to-upper 80s. The jacket weather will be brief: Valley temperatures are forecast in the 80s Thursday and Friday, while rain stays out of the picture through the weekend.
Dry Air Keeps Fire Weather On The Radar
The National Weather Service Sacramento office says the broader Valley, foothills and mountains may see periods of gusty wind through Friday. Low humidity is expected Tuesday; daytime humidity is forecast in the teens and 20s Thursday through Friday. Those conditions are raising elevated fire-weather concerns, particularly around dry grass, brush and anything that can spark. Sacramento has no active watches, warnings or advisories listed.
Warmest Stretch Arrives Thursday And Friday
Sunny skies will stick around as temperatures reach the 80s Thursday and Friday. Overnight lows will remain comfortable, ranging from about 53 to 55 degrees, making for cool evenings even as afternoons turn decidedly summerlike.
Cooler Turn Arrives Next Week
Sunday eases back to a sunny high near 80, followed by a mostly sunny Monday near 71 and Tuesday near 70.
