Alert. A Wind Advisory is in force for Elberta until 7 PM tomorrow. Read the alert in full, and see what it means in the Field Book. Tomorrow is 9 degrees cooler: a high of 72° after 81° today.
Now. Elberta is 70° and mostly clear at 8 AM. The dew point is 71°, so the air feels very oppressive. Light air from the north-northeast at 2 mph.
Today and tonight. It warms to about 81° by 2 PM. Tonight falls to about 55° by 7 AM, under a mostly clear sky. No rain is expected for the rest of the day.
