Good Tuesday morning and the last day of February,

Although this is not a leap year. 2024 is, so I will get it right next year 😊

We will have a relatively dry Tuesday before more rain returns late afternoon and tonight.

It makes me laugh when the National weather service writes in the forecast that the storm system has overachieved expectations.

I think pretty much this entire rainy season has overachieved expectations, as we are more than 200% of normal rainfall for the season today. Can you believe San Marcos pass has received 58 inches of rain this season, so far?

Here is the next round of weather heading our way https://zoom.earth/#view=33,-117.8,4z/map=live .

This is north to south right now, but it will be cut off later in the day.

creating south winds and good rainfall late this afternoon and tonight. snow levels will start out today at 3000 to 4000 feet, then overnight drop to 1500 to 2500 feet.

This will bring back lots of pretty pictures of our mountains and plenty of snow. Closer to sea level more rain. ½ to 1 ½ inches with 1 to 3 inches in the hills and at the best exposure another 4 inches. Snow will be in the feet above 5000 feet, 4 to 8 inches below and snow down to 1500 feet by Wednesday morning. The rain/snow will end Wednesday during the day then the chill returns Wednesday night with freezing temps overnight. (stay off the 154 Thursday morning, we don’t need another 6-car crash from ice)

Thursday through Saturday day we are looking for dry weather, and a slight warm-up. Highs will get into the low 60s, which is better than the 50s.

Sunday and into next week, it just will not break. it looks like we will be remaining in the wet pattern with more rain and cool weather.

This pattern really must break soon since we are getting into March and typically the end of the rainy season. Let’s hope for some 70s after next week.

In the meantime enjoy the wet, cool weather another week. You don’t have a choice unless you get on a plane.
