HELP IS GOING TO ARRIVE OR NOT. REPORTING FOR US TONIGHT. LET’S CHECK IN WITH OUR METEOROLOGIST, OPHELIA YOUNG, WHO’S TRACKING THE STORM SYSTEM FOR US. AND HERE’S PERPETRATOR NUMBER ONE. IT IS A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE SPINNING OFF THE COAST, FOLLOWED BY PERPETRATOR NUMBER TWO, THAT IS SPINNING NORTH OF THE ALEUTIANS. AND I SAY THAT VERY LOVINGLY, BECAUSE WE DO NEED THE RAIN AND WE NEED THE SNOW, DESPITE THE MESS THAT IT’S GOING TO CAUSE THESE NEXT FEW DAYS. RAIN ALREADY QUIETLY CREEPING INTO NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. WE HAVE A FEW SHOWERS IN THE COASTAL RANGE NOW IN THE NORTH VALLEY. EVEN THUNDER AND LIGHTNING JUST NORTH OF CHICO. FEW SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE OVERNIGHT, BUT THAT’S ALL WE’LL HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THROUGH YOUR SUNDAY MORNING. IN FACT, WE MIGHT EVEN START OFF YOUR SUNDAY WITH A LITTLE SUNSHINE. THAT RAIN WILL BE MOVING INTO THE WEST COAST BY AFTERNOON. IT WILL SPILL INTO THE VALLEY AND THROUGH DINNER TIME. CHANCE OF RAIN IS GOING TO INCREASE. YOUR SUNDAY EVENING IS GOING TO BE A WET ONE. THAT IS HOW WE’RE GOING TO END YOUR WEEKEND AND START YOUR WORKWEEK WITH SOME SCATTERED SHOWERS. SO UP UNTIL THEN, WE’RE STILL IN THE WARM SECTOR OF THE STORM. TEMPERATURES ARE NOT GOING TO DROP OFF TOO MUCH. IN FACT, TONIGHT WE’LL KEEP THINGS IN THE UPPER 40S. 47 DEGREES YOUR OVERNIGHT LOW WITH A LIGHT BREEZE. TOMORROW. HOWEVER, AS THAT STORM SYSTEM PUSHES IN, THAT PRESSURE GRADIENT IS GOING TO TIGHTEN. WE’LL FEEL A LITTLE BIT OF BREEZE PICK UP OUT OF THE SOUTH ABOUT 10 TO 15MPH, BUT WILL STILL KEEP TEMPERATURES COMFORTABLE, TOPPING OUT AT 64 DEGREES IN YUBA CITY, 61 STOCKTON 62 AUBURN AND PLACERVILLE STILL ONCE AGAIN FLIRTING WITH THE 60S AND TRUCKEE AND SOUTH LAKE TAHOE TEMPERATURES CLIMBING INTO THE LOW 40S. AND THE WARMTH IS GOING TO FADE AFTER THAT. AFTER STORM NUMBER ONE MOVES THROUGH, STORM NUMBER TWO IS GOING TO DROP IN. THE QUIET AREA IS GOING TO BE THE QUIET PERIOD IS GOING TO BE MONDAY NIGHT. DRIER BUT BREEZY WITH A FEW SNOW SHOWERS STILL LINGERING IN THE SIERRA. MAYBE A COUPLE SHOWERS IN THE FOOTHILLS, BUT STORM NUMBER TWO DROPS IN. IT’S GOING TO BE WINDY AND COLDER. YOU SAW WHERE IT’S ORIGINATING. IT’S GOING TO DROP RIGHT OUT OF THE GULF OF ALASKA. SO THIS ONE IS GOING TO BE AN EVEN SNOWIER SYSTEM. AND IT’S GOING TO BE DRY, WHICH MEANS A LOT OF THAT SNOW IS GOING TO BE FLUFFY. NOW, FORECAST MODELS ARE INDICATING THAT WE’LL GET AN ADDITIONAL WAVE WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. SO A FEW SHOWERS ARE LINGERING THEN, BUT NOTHING AS IMPACTFUL AS MONDAY AND TUESDAY. SO THIS IS WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW. SNOW IS GOING TO BE OUR PRIMARY CONCERN WITH THESE TWO SYSTEMS. WE’RE LOOKING AT 2 TO 5FT OF SNOW ABOVE 5000FT, AND EVEN DOWN TO 2500FT IN ELEVATION. AREAS COULD SEE SOME SNOW AND THE RAIN IN THE VALLEY. 1 TO 2IN OF RAIN. BUT WITH THOSE GUSTS UP TO 45MPH AT TIMES COULD BE QUITE MESSY. HERE IN THE VALLEY AS WELL. NOW WE MADE THIS GRAPHIC SO THOSE IN THE FOOTHILLS, THE SIERRA CAN FIGURE OUT WHEN THAT SNOW IS GOING TO ARRIVE TO THEM DOWN TO 4500FT ON MONDAY. SO AREAS LIKE BLUE CANYON COULD SEE SOME SNOW AS EARLY AS MONDAY. ON TUESDAY, SNOW LEVEL DROPPING TO 3000FT ON WEDNESDAY, ABOUT 20 500FT. THAT’S WHERE IT’S GOING TO BOTTOM OUT. BUT IT LOOKS LIKE TUESDAY IS GOING TO BE THE DAY WHERE ABUNDANT PRECIPITATION IS GOING TO MEET. WITH THAT PLUMMETING SNOW LEVEL, WHICH DOES MEAN THAT ON THAT DAY WILL BE PARTICULARLY WATCHING SNOW ACCUMULATIONS AT 3000FT LOOKS LIKE 8 TO 10IN OF SNOW IS POSSIBLE. SO WE’RE TALKING LOW SNOW HERE IN THE VALLEY. HOWEVER, JUST THE RAIN THAT WE HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT. BREEZY. SO AGAIN MONDAY THE RAINIER DAY, BREEZY WINDS TUESDAY HOWEVER, WILL BE THE WINDIER DAY. THERE WILL BE SOME RAIN, BUT NOT AS MUCH AS MONDAY. WEDNESDAY REMAINS AN IMPACT DAY FOR TRAVEL, BASICALLY GOING ANYWHERE. IT’S GOING TO BE SLICK, WET, ESPECIALLY THROUGH THE SIERRA THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. NOW THURSDAY WE’RE LOOKING AT A COUPLE SHOWERS THAT WILL STILL LINGER. FRIDAY NOW LOOKS TO BE THE CLEANUP DAY. WE NEE
