...LINGERING SHOWERS THIS AFTERNOON AS A LOW PASSES TO THE NORTH...
...RETURN OF DRY CONDITIONS AND ABOVE NORMAL TEMPS FRIDAY THROUGH
EARLY NEXT WEEK...

.METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS (THU PM - WED AM)...

Forecast remains on track, no big changes from this morning. Radar
shows some scattered showers over ne NV around I-80 and a few light
returns along the north coast this afternoon. A front remains
stretched across srn CA and through srn NV while a now open trough
heads through ID. This will keep some light lingering showers
possible this afternoon. High pressure continues to build in
offshore behind the exiting system which will act to dry conditions
across the region and gradually raise temperatures back to above
normal as we head into the weekend. Anomalies on the order of +5 to
+15 deg F with some locations locally higher. Dry and above normal
through most of Tuesday before models have a low approaching nrn CA
from the west. Both the GFS and ECMWF bring initial showers into the
coast in the late afternoon time frame. Precip forecast to begin to
head inland overnight Tuesday, though the bulk of the accumulation
will be after the current window. Amounts for the moment look like
0.10" or less mainly confined to nw CA. Although, spreads amongst
the ensembles are still looking like at least an inch so some
uncertainty for that system.
