SO WARM AND NICE! 62°F 10:00AM Hey hey Giovanni here. Another warm and dry spring day is here as High pressure keeps the storm track well to our north with only a few clouds in our region. Enjoy the sun! Today's temps may reach the mid 60s with overnight lows in the mid 40s.
A weak storm looks to bring us showers late Tuesday through late Wednesday as a trough pushes inland primarily to our south. Rain and snow totals won't be very impressive with snow above 6000ft. A stronger colder Pacific storm looks likely for Friday bringing us the possibility rain and Sierra snow through Saturday. Our weather looks unsettled and wet for a while. More on that soon.
The long range forecast looks wet off and on as we approach the end of March. This stormy wet weather pattern is typical of March and doesn't look particularly strong or that wet. Even if March ends with less than average rainfall. It's all good. The current heavy snow-pack and heavy rains of winter have removed any threat of drought this year. Have a great Sunday.
