Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service San Joaquin Valley - Hanford CA
425 AM PST Fri Nov 25 2016

.SYNOPSIS...Dry weather will prevail across much of the central
California interior through Saturday. However, a storm system
offshore will bring a slight chance of rain to areas west of I-5
Saturday afternoon. Precipitation is expected over much of the
district Saturday evening through Sunday with snow down to pass
level in the Kern county mountains. Much of next week will be
dry and cooler than normal.

&&

.DISCUSSION...Skies are mostly clear and winds are generally
light across the central California interior as of this writing.
Fog is the only concern this morning in the San Joaquin Valley
which so far is under 1/4 mile in just a few locations. Until
about 10 am, valley motorists heading out to do some holiday
shopping will need to slow down and be alert for areas of dense
fog. Otherwise, a rather pleasant day is on tap with seasonable
afternoon temperatures and little more than some cirrus clouds.
Skies will remain mostly clear tonight and again a few patches
of dense fog could reform in the San Joaquin Valley, especially
toward daybreak Saturday.

Meanwhile, a significant pattern change is just around the
corner, one that will definitely trend colder and unsettled
during the second half of this weekend with potential wintry
weather woes in the mountains for holiday motorists. There
are two storm systems that will certainly pack a one-two punch
along the central California coast and across southern California
this weekend. It now looks like the first storm will remain far
enough offshore and keep the best chance of precipitation west
of the coastal ranges during the daylight hours Saturday. Although
a few showers could sneak in to the west side of the San Joaquin
Valley or into the western portion of Kern County Saturday
afternoon, much of the CWA will remain precipitation-free
prior to dusk with an increase in clouds. This "coastal hugger"
will take a left turn into southern California Saturday night
while storm #2 settles southward into northern California. This
second storm will be much colder and bring a healthy dose of
rain and higher elevation snow to the Sierra from late Saturday
night through midday Sunday. By the time precip diminishes
Sunday afternoon, snow levels will likely fall as low as 3500
feet in the Sierra and down to pass level in the Kern County
mountains. While the wet weather is welcome, it could not come
at a worse time for folks traveling back home from the
Thanksgiving holiday. Winter driving conditions are possible
along I-5 through Tejon Pass and Highway 58 through Tehachapi
Pass from midday Sunday through Sunday evening. Elevations in
the Sierra foothills as low as 3000 feet could also pick up a
light dusting of snow by late Sunday as well. Rainfall in the
San Joaquin Valley will be relatively light in comparison from
Sunday's storm system. Additionally, the change to colder weather
later this weekend will be accompanied by blustery northwest
winds, even in the San Joaquin Valley, Sunday afternoon into
Sunday evening.

The models forecast the upper level trough to be centered over
the Great Basin by Sunday night. Although some light rain or
drizzle could linger at the south end of the San Joaquin Valley
and a few residual snow showers are possible along the north
facing slopes of the Tehachapi mountains during this time, most
of the CWA will be drying out. Monday will remain brisk and
much cooler than normal over the CWA under a prevailing northwest
flow aloft. A weak disturbance embedded in the upper level flow
could bring additional snow showers to the higher elevations of
the Sierra Monday with little or no additional accumulation.
But in the aftermath of Sunday's storm, much of the Sierra above
7,000 feet will have received it's first significant snowfall
so far this season.

Monday night through Tuesday night will by much more tranquil
with mostly clear skies and light winds as a weak short wave
ridge aloft moves over central California. Night and morning
fog could return to the San Joaquin Valley during this period.
The models bring a short wave trough southeastward through the
Pacific Northwest during the middle of next week with a dry
cold frontal passage across central California. Afterward, the
models agree on deepening this trough into a closed Low over the
Great Basin Thursday. This setup could bring a dry and much
colder air mass into central California by late next week. There
is also the possibility of a Mono Wind event in the Sierra
Thursday night north of Kings Canyon but only if the orientation
of the polar jet is aligned southwestward between the closed low
over the Great Basin and a building high amplitude ridge off the
Pacific Northwest coast. Much uncertainty here in Days 6 and 7.
However, this is the type of pattern that could bring a threat
of frost and sub freezing minimum temperatures to the San Joaquin
Valley a week from now.

&&

.AVIATION...In the San Joaquin Valley, areas of MVFR in mist/haze
with local IFR/LIFR in fog through 18Z Friday. Otherwise, VFR
conditions will prevail over the central CA interior for the next 24
hours.

&&

.AIR QUALITY ISSUES...
On Friday November 25 2016... Firepalce/Wood Stove Burning Status
is: No Burning Unless Registered in Fresno... Kern and Tulare
Counties.
