Jack's Weather Report

Good Friday morning, 

Good news it is, the 101 is back open. 

The fire is still burning at 11% containment, but the winds in our area has calmed. 

Now the winds shift to Ventura south and they now have a Red flag alert. 

Good Thursday morning,

Today the weather is all about the fire. The noozhawk has some incredible photos of what is going on.

Tonight, the fire area will see sundowner winds that will stir the fire up. These winds will be west of the airport and right over the fire. 

Good Tuesday morning,

Today we will see a cooler day with highs reaching the low 70s. In the valleys tonight, temps will near the freezing mark. 

Good Monday morning, 

What a fantastic Sunday it was. Santa Barbara hit 81 degrees and Sunstone vineyard was 89 degrees. Just a fantastic weekend. Today Columbus Day.  A day off for some, but not the construction industry. 

If you go outside you can feel the cool off shore dry wind. This is thanks to low pressure in Oregon dropping south over land. This is a colder system that will bring wind and colder air. Some valleys will almost see freezing temps tonight.

Good Friday morning,

Look at that, wet stuff is out there. Hard to call this rain, but it is a wet drizzle. 

Looking at the radar, you can see we have some light rain, but LA is certainly much wetter.

This is thanks to low pressure to the north and some subtropical clouds to the south, making it wetter in LA.

Good Thursday morning, 

No real changes to the forecast. 

Today we will see a cool and mostly cloudy day, with highs in the 60s.

Tonight and Friday morning, the low-pressure system to the north will move through.

Good Wednesday morning,

We will start the day with the return to fog and cooler temps. 

Overall, today will be a nice day with some morning fog, then mid to high clouds floating over us throughout the day. It will make for a pretty sunset. Temps will cool a few degrees, remaining in the low 70s.

Holly Moly, 

What a storm last night. That was spectacular!!! 

The 20% chance was not much during the day.

It all changed around 4:30 pm, when it was clear that thunderstorms to the south were heading our way.

The show started right around 6:30 and went well into 9 pm. Of course Jack had to climb onto his roof and take some pictures.

Good Monday morning, 

I hope everyone enjoyed the weekend. Sunday was just a great warm day to get outside .

To start the work week, there is a low-pressure system to the south that should give mainly LA to San Diego a chance for some rain, at around 40%. To the north, here is our area 20% tonight. Today should be cloudy most of the day with some high clouds. Temps will drop off to the mid 70s.
