NEIGHBORHOODS:

Dry the rest of the week before a more active pattern moves in

Minus a few light showers on the North Coast this morning it will be another dry and mild day.

High pressure is the dominant feature over NorCal and that will mean dry conditions through the end of the week.

That said, there will still be areas of patchy fog including parts of the Sacramento Valley that will see patchy fog especially in the overnight and morning hours. Otherwise, there will be passing high and mid-level clouds at times.

This drier pattern will stick around through Friday before the ridge begins to push to the east allowing the storm door to open once again.

Off and on rain is expected this weekend and most likely through all of next week as well.

Snow levels look to start off fairly high and will be above 5,000 feet Saturday, Sunday and Monday but may lower down to around 4,000 feet give or take by next Tuesday (Christmas Eve).

As of right now, it looks like rain and mountain snow for Christmas Eve but dry for your Christmas Day before another round of rain and mountain snow moves through on the 26th.

The next in a series of storms is approaching Northern California today and most of us will feel its impacts late tonight into early tomorrow morning. Snow levels will initially be above 7,000 to 8,000 feet as the warmer part of the storm moves through. The Atmospheric River is pointed to our north but will slowly shift to the south transporting healthy amounts of moisture/rain into Northern California. The winds will also be strong with gusts in the 35 to 45 mph range and potentially higher on the exposed mountain ridges. With steady moderate to heavy rain coupled with an already saturated ground there will be the potential for some localized flooding in low-lying areas, rises in creeks and streams and possible mudslides and debris flows. Once the cold front passes we will then be under the influence of cool and unstable air keeping our chances for scattered showers and possible thunderstorms through the day on Tuesday. Snow levels will also drop to as low s 4,000 to 4,500 feet and could cause delays with the potential for chain requirements mainly east of I-5 on the higher mountain passes. Keep checking in with Weather NorCal for the latest on this storm and the others to follow later this week from the FREE Weather NorCal App and the 24 hour streaming channel available on YouTube, Roku and Amazon Firestick (just search for Weather NorCal).Image attachmentImage attachment
