Another Dose Of Weekend Rain
We’ll return to active weather this weekend as a storm system moves in from the northwest. It will bring a lot of cloudcover and some light rain into the evening, then showers for Sunday. Temperatures will remain cool. However, high pressure will follow and warm us up next week. We’ll also enjoy the longest dry period so far this month (which isn’t saying much since it has rained at least somewhere in our area almost every day!)
Saturday: Mostly cloudy to overcast with periods of light rain. Rain will be more likely nearest the coast or higher in elevation. Continued cool with highs in the 50s and maybe a few low 60s in the southern Salinas Valley.
Overnight: Mostly cloudy with light rain possible overnight. Coastal lows in the 40s to 50s and 30s to 40s inland.
Sunday: Showery Sunday with mild temperatures. Rainfall most likely from late morning to early afternoon. Highs in the 50s to low 60s.
Extended: Next week will be marked by mostly sunny skies and warmer temperatures. Highs should be close to normal for this time of year … 60s to low 70s. Expect breezy conditions on the coast during the afternoons, though.
The outlook from the Climate Prediction Center for April 4TH – 10TH calls for the likelihood of ABOVE temperatures and ABOVE normal precipitation.
