morning. Satellite images show the thicker fog along the low lying
areas of the San Joaquin and King Rivers. A ridge of high
pressure will continue to dominate central CA today with above
normal temperatures and dry conditions. Maximum temperatures are
forecast to be around 8-12 degrees above normal. Think some patchy
fog will form again tonight with favorable radiational cooling
conditions before the next weather system. Any fog in the valley
should lift into low stratus Sunday morning with a stronger
onshore flow and wind mixing.

The next weather system moving through central CA Sunday is a
positive tilted upper trough moving onshore through north CA. The
system will be cold but be limited with moisture. The trough will
move east into the Great Basin on Sunday night. The system will
be a fast moving and moisture starved, so precipitation will be
mainly light and mostly confined to the mountains. Rainfall
amounts are only 0.1" to 0.2" liquid in the Sierra which
translates to 1-3 inches of snowfall. While snow amounts will be
light, there is potential for some winter hazards in the Kern
County Mountains late Sunday night as snow levels will lower to
pass levels.

The more significant impact from this system will likely be from
strong gusty winds. Onshore wind flow will be on the increase by
mid-day Sunday as the surface pressure gradient ramps up. A Wind
Advisory has been issued for the West Side Hills and most of the
SJ Valley from Noon to 10 PM Sunday. Upper level winds near 90kts
turn NW behind the trough Sunday evening. The wind direction will
be cross mountain flow over the Tehachapis, thus high winds will
possible especially below the mountain passes Sunday evening in
parts of the Kern County Mountains and Desert. A High Wind Watch
has been issued for this area from Sunday afternoon through Monday
morning.

The system will bring, a cold air mass over central CA Monday and
continue to provide a cold north wind flow across central CA
through Tuesday. Near freezing temperatures may be possible in
parts of the SJ Valley Monday morning. Freezing temperatures will
be more likely Tuesday and wednesday mornings with forecast lows
in the upper 20s in portions of the valley. A warm and dry trend
develops for the end of the week as an Epac ridge builds back
over the west.
