Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service San Francisco Bay Area
249 AM PST Wed Dec 6 2017

.SYNOPSIS...A strong ridge of high pressure over much of the West
Coast will result in dry weather conditions likely through all of
next week. Overnight conditions will be very cool through at least
into Thursday morning, with freezing temperatures likely in the
coldest inland valleys. Daytime temperatures will gradually warm
through the week into the weekend.

&&

.DISCUSSION...as of 3:00 AM PST Wednesday...Quite a change from 24
hours ago. This time yesterday morning we were still looking at
some spots in the North Bay well in the 50s due to moderate winds.
Today it's a different story with nearly calm winds leading to
much lower numbers -- in some cases nearly 20 degrees cooler.
Will keep the current freeze warning going with many spots in the
North Bay plus southern Salinas Valley likely to drop into the
20s. Might also see a few pockets of 20s stretching from Morgan
Hill to Gilroy.

Synoptically a strong ridge of high pressure centered just off the
coast will be the dominate weather feature for our region the
next seven days, and likely the next fourteen days. The ridge
aloft will combine with offshore flow at the surface keeping sea
breezes away from most spots. This will allow coastal areas to
warm just as much as the interior. Temperatures will trend upward
through the weekend as the ridge expands and becomes centered
overhead plus 850 mb temperatures also increase. This will lead to
highs returning to the 70s for the southern third of the CWA with
60s common for the rest of our area by tomorrow. Would not be
completely surprised if an isolated spot in Monterey County even
hits 80s degrees over the weekend.

Still no sign of wet weather retuning to our region. 6 to 10 and 8
to 14 day outlooks both continue to strongly favor warmer than
normal temperatures with drier than normal conditions. If that
holds, it will take us out to January 20th. Some hints that rain
may return beyond that point.

&&

.AVIATION...As of 03:22 PM PST Tuesday...for 00Z TAFS...VFR with
SKC. General NE winds will keep lower levels dry. Nailing down
specific wind direction at times may be problematic at times given
lighter flow. Think low levels will be mixed enough to prevent fog
for KSTS.

Vicinity of KSFO...VFR with clear skies.

SFO Bridge Approach...Similar to KSFO.

Monterey Bay Terminals...VFR with clear skies.
