NEIGHBORHOODS:

The wet pattern has arrived with off and on rain through the week and into the weekend

An active weather pattern is taking shape over Northern California with off and on rain, snow in the mountains, gusty winds at times and even the potential for localized flooding along with mudslides and debris flows.

The next round of steady moderate to heavy rain along with gusty winds arrives Monday night through Tuesday morning. The valley could pick up about an inch of rain give or take for through Tuesday morning alone and about double that on the coast.

Snow levels will be quite high overnight and will mainly be above 7,000 feet but will most likely lower to as low as 4,500 feet Tuesday morning and may cause travel delays on the higher mountain passes east of I-5.

There will still be some cool and unsettled air in place on Tuesday giving us scattered showers and maybe even a few thunderstorms especially for the Coast and Valley.

We’re dry on Christmas day but there may be some low clouds and fog in some areas before the next round of rain arrives Christmas night into Thursday. Snow levels on Thursday could drop to as low as 3,500 feet and will once again cause travel delays in the mountains. Here is a quick link to the road conditions page at Weather NorCal: https://weathernorcal.com/road-conditions/

We’re keeping it wet Friday and through the weekend with continued off and on rain showers and snow levels around 6,000 feet.

At this point, it looks like a drier trend as we go into next week.

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
