...SCATTERED SHOWERS AND T-STORMS OVER NRN CA, THE SIERRA, NRN NV
TODAY NARROWING TO NRN CA/NV TOMORROW...
...DRY CONDITIONS NEXT WEEK WITH WARMING TEMPERATURES...

.METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS (FRI AM - THU AM)...

Radar and satellite this morning show an area of scattered
thunderstorms over nrn CA, the Sierra, and nrn NV. Lightning
detection has picked up flashes and strikes over those areas as well
due to mid level moisture and instability. Expect this to continue
the rest of today into this evening with additional chances of
thunderstorms over far nrn CA into nrn NV tomorrow. Amounts are
expected to remain near or less than 0.25", though locally higher
totals will be possible. A general troughing pattern through the
weekend will also keep temperatures near seasonal normals before
high pressure re-exerts itself next week. A ridge will build in
offshore shifting overhead throughout early to mid next week
allowing temperatures away from the coast to rise up to 5 to 15 deg
F above seasonal normals. Longer range ensembles show the potential
for the ridge to flatten next weekend.
