Spring Showers in the Hills
The atmosphere will remain a bit
unstable into tomorrow as a complex area of low pressure slowly moves on. Afternoon
showers are likely over the hills, but they may stray over populated valleys as
well. Weak high pressure builds in Friday into Saturday with a slight
warm-up, but the next storm system will
sneak in from the west as we head through the weekend. Rain will return on
Sunday into Monday, to be followed by rounds of showers through mid-week next
week. High temperatures will remain below normal.
Overnight: Partly cloudy
with a few sprinkles possible. Lows in the 40s on the coast, upper 30s to low
40s inland.
Friday: Partly cloudy with an isolated shower possible over the
hills. Slightly warmer with highs in the mid 50s to low 60s. A bit breezy
on the exposed coast during the afternoon.
Saturday: Mostly sunny and warmer
with highs in the upper 50s to upper 60s. There’s a very slight chance of a
brief shower over the inland hills.
Extended: Clouds will be on the increase Sunday with rain possible
late. Showers will then linger into mid-week. High temperatures will cool from
the 60s on Sunday to 50s for most of the rest of next week.
The outlook from the Climate Prediction Center for March 27th –
April 2nd calls for the likelihood of BELOW temperatures and ABOVE
normal precipitation.
