Good Thursday morning,

Can you say April showers? Well the models are now coming together with the rain becoming likely for Sunday night into Monday.

For today, it will be a foggy day with dampness. The marine layer has deepened and can even bring some drizzle for the morning. It will be a cool day, with highs in the low to mid 60s.

Tonight, the onshore flow continues, so you will likely wake to a typical May Gray morning.

Friday and Saturday, a weak ridge builds in and will warm us up some. 
The warmest areas will be the valleys where the coast will still see some morning fog breaking a little earlier than today. 

Highs in the upper 60s coastal and 70s in the valleys.

Sunday will start out like Saturday, but as a low pressure system drops from the Gulf of Alaska. This will trigger a wet Sunday night in north county and south county Monday morning. 

All models are now beginning to be in line with the rain chances. It looks like a 3 to 6 hour period of light to moderate rain, with 1/4 to 1/2 inch of wet stuff. Mountains can see up to an inch. 

This really will do nothing for our water supply, but you can turn off your sprinklers for a few days, and the hills might remain greener an extra week. This is all good considering we have seen very little rain in California this year.

Tuesday looks to start a warming trend with highs in the 70s. Enjoy the fun, don’t pack the umbrella just yet.
