Sacramento, CA – If you’ve been soaking up the warm sunshine, enjoy it while you can! Tuesday is bringing a bit of a reality check with cooler temperatures, gusty winds, and a chance for scattered showers. It’s not a full-blown storm, but it’ll be just enough to make you second-guess whether you should leave the house in short sleeves.
What’s the Deal with the Weather?
Some Hit-or-Miss Rain
- Rain chances are around 25%, meaning some areas might stay dry while others get a quick sprinkle.
- No heavy downpours, but the kind of rain that might have you dashing to your car faster than usual.
It’s Gonna Feel Chilly
- After a string of mild days, highs will only reach 59°F (15°C).
- By the evening, temps will drop to a brisk 45°F (7°C), so if you’re heading out for dinner, don’t leave the jacket at home.
The Wind Might Steal Your Hat
- It’s going to be breezy throughout the day, making it feel even colder.
- Not strong enough to knock down trees, but patio chairs and trash cans might take a little trip down the block.
How This Might Affect Your Day
Slick Roads: Even light rain can make the roads a little slippery, so take it slow on your drive.
The Wind Will Make It Feel Colder: You might feel more of a chill from the breeze than from the temperature itself.
Outdoor Plans? Be Ready to Adjust: It’s not a “cancel everything” kind of day, but maybe bring a sweater if you’ll be outside for long.
How to Prepare
Dress for the Weather – A light jacket or sweater will definitely come in handy.
Drive with Caution – If you’re hitting the road, watch out for slick spots.
Check the Forecast Before Heading Out – Weather could change throughout the day, so stay updated.
Tuesday won’t be a total washout, but it will feel cooler, breezier, and maybe a little damp. If you’ve gotten used to warm afternoons, this will be a reminder that spring still likes to throw curveballs.
