Da Laveaga rainfall gauge came in at 4.97" for the month of November, knocking it out of the park over the previous three years. We are off to a great start for our water year and all of that started just over 10 days ago. So far we recorded .38" at this plot for December. And there is more to come in the coming week. But first we get another fine late autumn day on Monday. It will be crisp in the morning. Some locales in town could hit the freezing mark. Expect front, and if you are on the before sunrise commute, you might want need to scrape your windshield. Easterly breeze and mostly sunny. Cool, with a high in the upper 50s. Feels kind of like winter. Rain moves in overnight, possibly before midnight.
This storm is basically driving down the coast and will dissipate and push inland well south of here. The result will be moderate rains over 36 hours, with moderate easterly winds. The storms center stays to our west, offshore, through its duration. Right now it looks like rain will arrive after sunrise on Tuesday. Mostly light showers to start, but will increase in intensity by afternoon. It could remain moderate overnight and through Wednesday. Rain lightens overnight Wednesday. Lows in the low 40 and highs in the upper 50s. Things will clear out slowly on Thursday. Friday looks nice. Sunny and back up into the 60s.
Over the next weekend it looks like a storm attempts to hit us, but high pressure building in will try to block it. Hang on, we are on our way into the water year and storms are lining up. Great news for the ski resorts that got another 20 to 45 inches of new snow over the past five days. More terrain is opening and it looks like we are off to a good start. This storm for next week will mostly miss the Sierra, being too far west, but that could still get a few more inches.
