Jack's Weather Report

Good Friday morning for some, if the wind is not part of your morning coffee.

Here is SB, it is calm and no real wind to speak of.

If you roll 40 miles to the south it is a whole other story. There

will be one more day of high winds at Ventura and south. You can see the red on the map.

Good Thursday morning, 

Are you ready for the wind. This is a northeast wind event. SB and Ojai will not be affected, but if you live in Ventura to Santa Monica you are feeling the winds already. 

Winds starting to pick up around 2am in Ventura south. This will blow the marine layer away and into SB. Looks like SB will see some fog until late morning.

Good Thursday morning,

Are you ready for power outages???.... not in SB, but Ventura to Santa Clarita, also Northern California. They are talking about 650,000 customers will be affected by this wind event starting here Thursday and Northern California today.

Good Tuesday Morning,

October is alway an interesting month for weather. Summer patterns begin to change and we start to see quite a fluctuation in the forecast. This week is no different.

A cold low pressure system in Canada is pushing into Washington. This is going to bring cooler days today and Wednesday.

Also, Thursday we will see our first strong Santa Ana wind event for the season. 

Mountains will see 50 to 60 mile an hour winds in Ventura and to the south. 

Good Friday morning, 

October has arrived and also Santa Ana season. 

We will be influenced by off shore flow and a weak Santa Ana wind event this weekend. 

The real result will be temps warning into the 80s and 90s in some locations. 

It will be a great late summer weekend for all that love warm and sunny weather. 

Winds will blow Saturday and Sunday for the northeast at around 10 to 25 miles an hour. This will affect southern Santa Ana wind prone areas. 

For SB to Gaviota there will be some northwest winds today into tonight, but mild.

Good Thursday morning and my Dad's 87th birthday.

Today we are looking to have onshore flow return with cooler temps as a weak front rides over us.

Good Wednesday October the 2nd. It is a new month with typical fall weather. 

It is starting out very cool in the Santa Ynez mountains with 36 degrees, 53 in SB.

This is very typical as the air cools at night and days become shorter. So far this week we have had perfect weather, with the exception of cooler mornings. Off shore winds will come into play today and temps will warm up, especially in Santa Ana wind areas. 

Good Monday morning, 

This week really is the end of September and the start of October. 

If you are waking up today, you may not know what time of the year it is. You would likely think Fall.

This morning it is quite brisk in the Santa Ynez valley, 41 degrees to start the day. 

Santa Barbara is 12 degrees warmer at 53.

This week we are looking at a great week to work outdoors.

Good Friday morning, 

Let’s start with Thursday. Was that a funky day? 6am we started with temp of 72 degrees, because of the stalled low spinning counter clockwise over the Nevada-CA. 

Then in the afternoon, the fog rolled in and kept it cool all day. It felt quite tropical. 

That’s what happens when lows from the south drift our way.

Good Thursday morning, 

Are you ready for a big cool down? 

We have a few different systems to look at today and into the weekend. 

Let’s start with the low pressure system that drifted up from Arizona. This is spinning counter clockwise and sitting in place with little movement.

Very unusual for us to see this.
