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 on Saturday, then break into partly cloudy skies
but scattered showers on 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!)
Overnight: Increasing
clouds with a few sprinkles possible near the coast. Cool, with coastal lows in
the 40s and 30s inland.
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.
Sunday: Partly cloudy, cool, and
breezy with a chance of showers. Showers are 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.
El Niño/La Niña STATUS: Neutral
