...LIGHT LINGERING SHOWERS POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON OVER NRN CA/NV...
...SHOWERS OVER THE N COAST SUNDAY, OTHERWISE DRY CONDITIONS THE 
REST OF THE PERIOD...

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

The upper trough is exiting the region into the Four Corners with 
ridging taking its place. Radar shows most of the returns also 
exiting NV with some light echos crossing I-5 near the OR border. 
Potential for some light isolated showers over parts of nrn CA/NV 
early this afternoon but the main event has ended. Not much has 
changed since this morning. Expecting mostly dry conditions through 
the forecast period aside from some showers along the north coast on 
Sunday as the tail end of a front moves through nrn CA. Amounts 
along the coast look like 0.10-0.25" quickly diminishing into a few 
hundredths or so not far inland.
