TODAY'S FORECAST - WARMING UP! 50°F 9:00AM

WARMING UP! 50°F 9:00AM Hey hey Giovanni here. High pressure will continue to strengthen and bring us warmer days and nights. A few cirrus cloud bands are likely as a disturbance to our north skirts by. Today's temps may reach the upper 50s with overnight lows in the low 40s.

This dry warmer weather pattern will be us right through this weekend. It's the first dry and warm weekend in forever! We may even reach the mid 60s this weekend and early next week with overnight temperatures warming into the mid 40s. A chance of rain is possible next Wednesday possibly continuing into Thursday with a stronger wetter Pacific storm for Friday bringing us t'storms and heavy Sierra snow. More on that soon.

The long range forecast is flipping wet again. Forecast models are pretty headstrong on a stormy weather pattern developing by the middle of next week and continuing right through the weekend. It's still too soon to know how many storms and how cold, but it's early spring so anything is possible. Have a fantastic Friday.
