...WARM AND DRY THROUGH THE WEEKEND...
...TURNING COOLER WITH OPPORTUNITIES FOR PRECIP MON THROUGH THU...

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

High confidence with dry and warm conditions continuing through the 
weekend under the influence of an upr ridge centered over west 
Texas. Afternoon temperature anomalies through Sunday are expected 
to run primarily between plus 15- and plus 25-degF over seasonal 
normals. 

A pattern shift is expected on Monday with a series of disturbances 
moving across the west coast bringing an opportunity of precip 
through Thursday with cooler temperatures closer to or just below 
average. However...confidence is low to moderate as models continue 
to weaken the systems with each successive run...resulting in 
lowered precip amounts. That is the story for the afternoon forecast 
issuance...down anywhere from 0.10- to 0.33-inch across northern and 
central CA (locally down 0.50-inch over the northern Sierra).
