THE WEEKEND...

.DISCUSSION...AS OF 9:00 PM PDT WEDNESDAY...LITTLE CHANCE IN THE
TEMPERATURES OVER THE LAST 24 HOURS WITH HIGHS THIS AFTERNOON MAINLY
IN THE 60S WITH ONLY A FEW OUTLIERS HERE AND THERE. MOST LOCATIONS
OVER THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE REGION PICKED UP ANYWHERE FROM A TENTH
TO THREE TENTHS OF AN INCH WITH THIS LATEST ROUND OF SHOWERS. SHOWERS
HAVE ALL BUT COME TO AN END THIS EVENING WITH THE NEXT SHOT EXPECTED
TO ARRIVE LATE TONIGHT/EARLY THURSDAY MORNING AS A WEAK SHORTWAVE
MOVING IN ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE TROUGH MOVES ACROSS NORTHERN
CALIFORNIA. SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO THE NORTH BAY AFTER 10Z
(3 AM) THURSDAY MORNING AND SPREAD SOUTH INTO THE BAY AREA THROUGH
THE MORNING. A SHORT BREAK IN THE WET WEATHER IS EXPECTED THURSDAY
EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING AS THE REGION TRANSITIONS BETWEEN ONE
SYSTEM TO THE NEXT.

FROM PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
A UNSEASONABLY DEEP AND COLD UPPER LOW...CURRENTLY SOUTH OF THE
ALEUTIAN ISLANDS WILL MOVE TO OFF THE CENTRAL/NORTHERN CA COAST. THIS
WILL BRING SHOWERS...MAINLY IN THE NORTH BAY FRIDAY AFTN...SPREADING
ACROSS THE ENTIRE DISTRICT FRIDAY NIGHT AND CONTINUING INTO SUNDAY
MORNING AS THE UPPER LOW REMAINS STATIONARY OFF THE COAST. THE AMOUNT
OF RAIN AND THE AMOUNT OF WIND WILL DEPEND ON THE PLACEMENT OF THE
UPPER LOW. THE 12Z NAM12 IS THE FURTHEST WEST OF THE MODELS...AND THE
18Z NAM12 ACTUALLY KEEPS THE LOW FURTHER OFFSHORE. THE ECMWF HAS THE
EASTERNMOST PLACEMENT WITH THE GFS IN THE MIDDLE. FOR NOW...HAVE

ON THE MODEL SOLUTION THERE COULD BE A CHANCE OF SHOWERS THROUGH
