Labor Day weekend is approaching, bringing an end to a summer that has been mercifully short on headlines, even in northern California, which is part of the world that has earned some time off.
At 553AM, PT, nearby Oroville Airport was reporting a temperature of 66 degrees and clear skies. High pressure is embracing the West Coast, even as a short wave trough ripples out of the northern Rockies to the Northern Plains. The flow onshore is leading to some haze at the surface along the coast, but it is too low slung to be an issue as far inland as Chico.
The upper level pattern will continue to become more stable, with a ridge settling into the West Coast. With less flow aloft, there is likely to be less vigorous onshore flow either. Some stagnancy to the pattern may lead to morning haze in Chico, but clear hot days will still return in the day.

Sun will be out, so I am inclined to follow the warmer guidance. Here is a look at the musings of the Fox 40 team in northern California.
