2/3/23

Good Friday morning,

Today we will see lots of high clouds as a weak system will pass to the North bringing rain from San Francisco to northern SLO. Only high clouds here  https://zoom.earth/

Saturday we will have a pop-up ridge which will make it the warmest day in the next 7 days. highs in the upper 60s.

Saturday night a slightly stronger system approaches and moves Saturday ridge to the East. This will result in rain in SLO with ¼ of an inch and ½ in the mountains.

As it approaches point conception it really weakens and will only create light rain for us. We are looking at around 1/10 inch maybe ¼ of an inch in the hills.

This is very weak with no southern support.

Sunday will be breezy and cool. Highs will be in the low 60s to upper 50s.

Next week we are looking at dry weather all week. Monday through Wednesday northeast Santa Ana winds and some warming. Thursday is dry, but the models can’t decide whether it will be windy or just warming. Needless to say, we will see very little rain Sunday and nothing beyond that.

Take a look at Lake Cachuma at 99.3% as of yesterday https://files.countyofsb.org/pwd/hydrology/Rainfall%20Reports/rainfallreport.pdf

Jay provides a great photo of the dam at Cachuma, it is just amazing.

Have a great weekend, Saturday should be the best day to get outside
