Friday Feb 4: Scattered light showers possible this afternoon and evening. Otherwise dry weather will stay with us through the end of next week and the following weekend. Could get a little breezy Saturday afternoon (gusts up to 15 mph). Expect night/morning fog to continue. Skies over the next week will vary from partly to mostly […]
Wed Feb 2: Happy Groundhog Day! Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow this morning. According to folklore, if he sees his shadow, six more weeks of winter is in store. But not for us, as we'll be significantly more drier than normal through mid or late February. Some signals that a wet pattern may develop during the […]
Thur Jan 27: Well the caption above rhymed so what else was I supposed to say? Actually, it's part of an old 7Up ad. Anyway...except for some light rain on Sunday (1/10"-1/4"), an isolated shower on Tuesday afternoon, and maybe a few showers next Thursday (Feb 3), our very unusual dry stretch is expected to generally […]
Mon Jan 24: Anomalous and strong high pressure will continue to maintain our unusual + extended dry period through Friday or Saturday. High temps this week will vary at 53-58 with lows bottoming out at 27-33 (this morning's low was 26). Normal high/low is 49/33. Saturday or Sunday, the pattern is expected to change over to […]
Fri Jan 21: Dry through the end of NEXT week. Over the weekend, night/morning fog and/or low clouds is expected but "should" give way to at least some afternoon sunshine. As I'm sure you've noticed, we've been much drier than normal these past two weeks (see charts below). Below normal precipitation will continue through the end […]
Mon Jan 17: A few very weak low pressure systems will clip our area between Tuesday morning and Thursday night. This will cause partly to mostly cloudy skies with some light showers at times. Total combined rainfall looks to be about 1/3" (0.33"). Light winds 10 mph or less, snow levels near 5000'. Looks dry Friday […]
January is our 3rd wettest month, but it will be more dry than wet over the next 10-14 days. Anomalously strong high pressure across the west and over the North Pacific is causing the jet stream to buckle and keep storms north of our area. The video shows the jet stream at 35,000 feet (yellow/red/purple) […]
It seemed as if the rain would never stop, but here we are in a dry pattern for a change. It feels good to finally see the sun, doesn't it? A small chance of a light shower or two on Monday, then better rain chances will exist on Wednesday night and Thursday (less than 1/4"). […]
Thurs Jan 6: Last of the series of storms will affect the area this evening through Friday evening. Although we might see some gusts to 30 or 35 mph, winds aren't expected to be as strong as the Sun-Mon system where the coast saw 80+mph winds and 35-45 mph across the local area. Right now […]
Sunday Jan 2: Significant rainfall (2-4") is expected through Friday. Winds will increase this afternoon with gusts of up to 25-35 mph possible at anytime between 4pm today to 7am Monday Monday morning. It will then remain breezy at times through Tuesday afternoon, with some wind gusts up to 10-20 mph at times. ???? RAIN […]
