Why are our hottest hours 3-5 PM rather than noon? And why are our hottest days usually in July rather than around the solstice? I’ve got the answers! The National Weather Desk #CAwx

Your motto to live by today (and every day) is DDST!! We can't control Mother Nature, but we can control our own actions. Make sure they're smart and don't cause sparks! Think of the grueling work fire crews do to protect our communities. Do NOT make it harder on them! #CAwx

Here's a look at what's trending in the world of weather as we navigate a wacky week! Today will be cool and relatively calm, but we'll definitely turn a page on Thursday as mountain thunderstorms really start firing up. #CAwx

Did you know? Every day in the month of July has hit 110+ at least twice in Redding's history! Some days in August haven't even gotten there once! #CAwx

Feel like those days are starting to get noticeably shorter? They sure are! We lose about 1:30-1:40 of daylight each day in mid-July, and that number grows all the way to the Fall Equinox! So far, Northstate cities have lost 27-31 mins of daylight since the solstice. #CAwx

Shasta Lake is looking good! Water levels are lower than this time in 2023 and 2024, but higher than normal for late July. Hope you can get out and enjoy the water this summer! #CAwx #ShastaLake

Good Monday morning, Northstate! Here's a look at the warm, slightly stormy week ahead. Also look towards August for our first chance at toasty days in a while! #CAwx

It is plenty warm out today, so you might not notice it, but this marks the first day that our normal high temperature is decreasing since December!! It takes a long time to really get started, but once October hits, the cooldown happens FAST. Here we go! #CAwx

Good Monday morning! It is great to be back on Daybreak! We are staring down another hot day, but the rest of the week looks wonderful. Hang in there! #CAwx

A new week is here, and so is a new pattern! This one will gradually send us back towards sizzling temperatures, but not for too terribly long. Check it out! #CAwx

Good Tuesday morning! We’re enjoying a comfortable start before one more warm (not hot) day… change is coming though! Check it out. ☀️ #CAwx

A Heat Advisory is set to start tomorrow over Trinity, Lake & portions of Mendocino Counties, while the rest of the region waits until Friday. That being said, most communities will see their hottest day on Thursday! It's a slow crawl back towards normal after that. #CAwx

Lake Shasta is looking good! We may be below last year's water levels for this date, but we remain above normal for this time of year. Get out and enjoy the last few weeks of summer on our beautiful lake! It won't be too long before we're starting to fill her back up again! #CAwx
