Weekend Forecast: Simmering end to summer
REDDING, Calif. — Summer officially ends on Tuesday at 5:05 p.m. Pacific Time, so we’re staring down our final weekend of the season! What does it have in store?.

Now two days removed from our stormy setup, temperatures continue their climb on Saturday and push above normal for the first time in over a week. This’ll come in the form of low to mid 90s throughout the valley, and mainly 80s across the higher elevations. Skies look quite clear away from the immediate coastline, where the marine layer should remain stubborn all the way into the new week. Light north breezes like we saw on Friday should continue through the afternoon.
