FRIDAY: The ridge building from the west has slowed down due to an upper low hanging around to the northeast. That has altered the forecast slightly. An inverted trough splits the region from north to south. Most areas stay dry for the day. Northern, central, and eastern areas run the risk of an isolated shower and/or a rumble of thunder.
With the dry airmass in place, rain accumulations are expected to be light. With dew point depressions upwards of a 30° departure from the actual temperature, relative humidity levels fall to around 30%. Add the northerly breeze, it poses a FIRE DANGER risk. Please use caution with campfires, grills, and flammable materials. Consult your local fire department, park warden, or forest ranger for burn guidance and permits. FRIDAY NIGHT: The sky clears out as the day's heating cools off. Temperatures are expected to be slightly warmer than the past two nights over the interior, but with low dew points, patchy frost remains possible for the north. Low temperatures range from the 30s to low 40s north and 40s to around 50° south. SATURDAY: Outside of the slight risk of a sprinkle over northern and eastern areas, another mainly dry day is expected. There is a mix of sun and clouds in eastern and central areas, with a mostly sunny sky elsewhere. High temperatures are expected to range in the 70s, with a sea breeze developing that keeps the shoreline areas cooler. OUTLOOK: The dry stretch of weather continues through midweek. Showers and thunderstorms could return on Thursday, and there is potential for an unsettled period through next weekend. Thank you as always for your support! - Mike |
