Turkey Showers
The departing cold low that brought
rain to the region over the past few days may throw a few more showers at us
Friday. Fast on its heels, a warmer, but wetter storm will arrive this weekend.
There is potential for heavy rain in the coastal mountains on Sunday. The
active weather pattern will continue into next week with several rounds of rain
and more seasonable temperatures.
Overnight: Partly cloudy with a few
sprinkles/flurries over the hills. Chilly, with coastal lows in the mid 30s to
low 40s and upper 20s to mid 30s inland. Patchy frost away from the immediate
coast and some fog possible in open, low areas.
*Frost Advisory*
The National Weather Service has issued a Frost Advisory from 10PM
tonight until 9AM Friday for the Santa Clara Valley (in Santa Clara County).
Expect temperatures in the low to middle 30s. Isolated locations may drop to
the upper 20s.
Frost could kill sensitive outdoor vegetation if left uncovered. Sensitive
populations may be adversely impacted by the cold temperatures.
Friday: Becoming partly cloudy with an isolated shower or two
possible moving in off of the ocean. Snow possible above 2,000ft with any
shower. Chilly with highs in the mid 40s to mid 50s.
Saturday: Increasing clouds with
light rain spreading over the area in the afternoon. Highs in the 50s. Rain
will become moderate to heavy overnight in the coastal mountains. Gusty winds
likely after dark, especially along the exposed coast and over the ridgetops.
Extended: Periods of rain, heavy at times on Sunday with showers
likely lingering into Monday. Temperatures will be more seasonable. Additional
rain chances Wednesday/Thursday.
The outlook from the Climate Prediction Center for December 6th - 12th
calls for the likelihood of ABOVE normal temperatures and ABOVE normal precipitation.
