    Breakfast Brief: Winter knocks on Rockies door

09:00 AM
October 21, 2024

Breakfast Brief
Warm start to work week

Another autumn work week kicks off with unseasonably mild temperatures returning to the U.S. Two autumn storms will bring some trouble to the Northwest and western high Plains.

The WeatherRadar shows bountiful of autumn sunshine from the central Plains eastward to the Atlantic. The abundant sunshine will help temperatures reach into the upper 70s and low 80s throughout the Plains, Midwest, South, Southeast and Northeast.

Across the western high Plains, it a different story. A weak front will produce showers from western Texas to the western high Plains of Kansas and Nebraska. A few rumbles of thunder are possible.

The southern and central Rockies, Southwest and California will also enjoy a quiet day. There will be a chill in the air with highs only in the 60s in many places. Southern California and the Southwest will be in the 70s with low 80s in the deserts.

Did you know?

On this day in 1934, a wind storm hit the Pacific Northwest. Wind gusts measured as high as 87 mph produced waves of 20 feet and knocked down tree. Twenty-two people died.

The WeatherRadar shows a new Pacific storm that arrived on Sunday will spread rain from northern California into the Northwest and northern Rockies. This storm will be a mild one with highs in the 50s everywhere, so mountain snow will only be limited to the highest peaks of the Cascades.

Tropical update:

Tropical Storm Oscar, which formed over the weekend near the Turk and Caicos island, will continue to bring heavy rain and the potential for flooding to eastern Cuba today. It will move northward before turning to the northeast over the next several days, moving over the Bahamas before moving back out over the open Atlantic, where it will weaken and dissipate.

News we are covering today:

  • Weekend flooding in New Mexico
  • Northwest rain
