A high pressure system to our northeast and a coastal low pressure system will interact near our area over the weekend. There remain differences between the GFS and NAM models in handling these systems, with the NAM shunting the precipitation to our south and west and the GFS shunting it to our south and east.
Either way, both models keep us mostly dry this weekend but with varying amounts of cloudiness and a cool breeze from the east. The only chance of light showers (GFS model) is Sunday morning.
The beautiful weather continues– High pressure moves off the coast later Saturday. A weak cold front will move through Saturday evening with the moisture and lift passing us by to our north.
Saturday will be mostly sunny with an increase in clouds late afternoon. High 85
After the front passes through, Sunday will become mostly sunny and breezy. Highs closer to the average of 75.
Sprawling high pressure is expected to provide continued beautiful weather through much of next week before moisture moving up the coast gives us a chance of rain next Friday.
As I said on Friday about today’s (Sunday) forecast: “Unfortunately, the models do poorly with the placement of precipitation around closed lows, so we could have partly sunny skies or even showers. Depending on the amount of sun, it could be 72-77 as a high temperature.”
I didn’t try to update this view yesterday, since nothing changed.
So looks like we are having all of the above today- sun, clouds and the radar is even showing some showers developing to our south and moving northward.
