Forecasts are changing.
Saturday looks pretty gloomy with lots of clouds and some
light showers at times but more so in the mountains and Central
Coast.
Sunday looks more sunny than first thought.
But a big storm will wash ashore Monday Tuesday and Wednesday.
It looks like we might tap into a subtropical aerial river in our area Monday with an increasing chance of showers moving in from the southwest. This will begin a roughly three day stretch of wet weather that models seem to think will peak in intensity Tuesday.
There`s some decent energy with a front coming in Tuesday …
so at some point the NWS may have to consider adding thunderstorms to the forecast.
We`ll likely see periods of moderate to heavy rain … the computers indicate rain amounts in the 1-3″ range … with the bulk
of that falling Tuesday.
