Northern California forecast: Cool with a few regional showers
NOW, LET’S TAKE THIS LIVE. LOOK OUTSIDE IN SACRAMENTO. WHERE? YEAH, JUST A FEW CLOUDS AROUND EARLY. WE’RE AT 62 DEGREES RIGHT NOW. WINDS SOUTHEAST AT ABOUT FIVE MILES PER HOUR. NOW, WE DO HAVE SOME ACTIVITY ON THE RADAR. SO HERE LOCALLY AROUND SACRAMENTO WE’RE STILL LOOKING AT DRY CONDITIONS, MAINLY CLEAR SKIES. BUT AS WE TAKE A LOOK AT WE’RE HEADING UP TOWARD TEHAMA COUNTY AND RED BLUFF. THAT’S WHERE WE’RE SEEING SOME SHOWER ACTIVITY THIS MORNING. WE’VE SEEN A FEW IN PARTS OF GLENN COUNTY, COLUSA AND LAKE COUNTIES THERE AS WELL, AND THEN HEADING OVER INTO PLUMAS COUNTY, SEEING A FEW SHOWERS HERE JUST TO THE NORTH OF CRESCENT MILLS. THOSE ARE MOVING THEIR WAY NORTHWARD, AND WE DO EXPECT TO SEE MORE ACTIVE WEATHER AS WE HEAD INTO THE AFTERNOON, ESPECIALLY IN THE SIERRA. AND THEN AGAIN IN THAT COASTAL RANGE, LIKELY TO SEE SOME SHOWERS THERE, TOO. TOMORROW AFTERNOON. MORE CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS, PRIMARILY IN THE SIERRA, MAYBE A LITTLE BIT INTO THE COASTAL HILLS TOO. AND THEN FRIDAY, JUST A SLIGHT CHANCE IN THE SIERRA DRY CONDITIONS. SUNNY FOR US ON SATURDAY. SUNDAY THOUGH, ANOTHER CENTER OF LOW PRESSURE STARTS MOVING ITS WAY IN THIS, BRINGING WITH IT MORE CLOUDS, MORE CHANCES FOR AT LEAST A FEW SHOWERS ALONG THE COAST AND THEN IN THE SIERRA VALLEY WILL LIKELY STAY DRY. AND THEN AS WE GET INTO NEXT WEEK, ANOTHER RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE STARTS MOVING IN. AND THAT IS GOING TO BRING SOME WARMER TEMPERATURES BACK TO OUR FORECAST. THE SEVEN DAY FORECAST FOR TODAY IN THE SIERRA 62 DEGREES CHANCES FOR SHOWERS TOMORROW 65 WARMING UP INTO THE 70S OVER THE WEEKEND FOR THE FOOTHILLS. SLIGHT CHANCE FOR A SPRINKLE OR TWO TODAY. JUST MAINLY, MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 70S AND THEN IN SACRAMENTO. TODAY THAT FORECAST HIGH, TOPPING OUT AT 79 DEGREES. HOW NICE IS THAT GETTING INTO THE UPPER 80S FOR US ON SATURDAY. AND A FEW MORE CLOUD

Enjoy another fall-like day with some showers, mainly in the higher terrain.A few morning showers have returned in the northern Valley, while the rest of the valley is waking up under a few clouds as a slow-moving area of low pressure prepares to swing through.Valley highs on Wednesday will reach the upper 70s, much cooler than the seasonal normal of 90 degrees. A stray shower is possible, especially in the northern Sacramento Valley. Afternoon temperatures in the foothills will also top out in the upper 70s, with a chance of showers. The Sierra has the greatest chance for a couple of thunderstorms this afternoon, with highs in the low 60s.The low will slowly progress east, carrying the potential for afternoon thunderstorms into Thursday. At the same time, valley temperatures will warm back into the 80s, climbing into the upper 80s on Friday. By then, storm chances will be limited to the Sierra.Saturday is shaping up nicely, as a ridge of high pressure brings more sunshine and warms temperatures back near 90 degrees.
