Low pressure will move inland across Central California overnight into Wednesday, bringing rain and higher elevation snowfall. A southerly flow will advect warmer air into this system, pushing the snow level up around 7,000 feet through Wednesday. Cooler air will filter into the region later in the day, bringing the snow level back down to around 6,000 feet. Unfortunately, most of the heavier precipitation will have already moved through by then, leaving only light accumulations, where a dusting to an inch or two is possible. Expect mostly cloudy skies tonight with scattered light rain or snow showers developing, lows in the 30s with southerly winds gusting to near 35 at times. As this low moves through the area, expect rain through Wednesday morning, turning showery by afternoon with a few thunderstorms possible. Cooler and windy on Wednesday with highs in the 40s, south to southwest winds gusting 15-30 mph at times, decreasing during the afternoon. Total rainfall amounts of around a half inch are possible, with locally an inch or more on the lower coastal slopes. Showers will taper off Wednesday night with clearing skies through Thursday. Highs will remain in the 40s with overnight lows generally in the 20s. Fair and a little warmer weather can be expected through Saturday as a transitional ridge builds across the region. Our next major series of storms is forecast to arrive on Sunday with snow, possibly heavy at times early next week. This should be a much colder series of storms with the snow level falling as low as 3,000-4,000 feet. Very preliminary estimates are advertising around a foot or more of snow, though confidence is still low this far out. Will fine-tune the forecast throughout the week, so check back often for the latest!
