The Snapshot: Sporty weather today with strong winds and
more precipitation. Clearing and dry
conditions can be anticipated tomorrow and Saturday.
The Science: After a brief break in the action
this morning a fast moving cold front will sweep through the state. Strong westerly winds have developed ahead of
this front with 50+knot winds currently pounding the coast. Winds will shift from SW to W as the front
approaches the mountains. Once the front
moves to the east, the wind and rain will quickly diminish. High pressure begins to build tonight to set
up clear and dry weather for the next few days.
Cool air will arrive from the north dropping freezing levels to +-4000.’
4-7day
Long Range: The Mountains could see a
dusting of snow on Sunday as a front drops in from the north. High pressure strengthens on Monday for a dry
and cold start to the work week.
