NWS Local Northern CA. Outlook Discussion
052 FXUS66 KSTO 181105 AFDSTO Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Sacramento CA 305 AM PST Tue Feb 18 2025 .SYNOPSIS... Patchy AM Valley fog today, with light precipitation expected on Wednesday. Warmer, above-normal temperatures then expected by late week continuing into the weekend. && .DISCUSSION... Latest GOES-West satellite imagery depicts mostly clear skies with isolated areas of fog and low stratus beginning to develop in the Valley. HREF probabilities indicate a 50 to 70% chance of visibilities less than a half mile along the eastern half of the Valley early this morning. Visibilities should gradually improve through the later morning hours. Clear, mostly sunny skies are anticipated today as ridging builds aloft. Spring-like temperatures return to the Valley with highs in the mid to low 60s. Moving up in the foothills and mountains, high temperatures will be in the 50s to low 60s and low 40s to mid 50s, respectively. Periods of breezy northerly winds are in store for Valley and mountain locations today, with gusts to 15 mph at times in the Valley. Entering into the mid-week period, a quick-moving system is forecast to bring light precipitation to portions of interior Northern California on Wednesday. The majority of precipitation will be along the Interstate 80 corridor and northward with forecast amounts between 0.10 and 0.50 inches, with isolated totals between 0.40 and 0.60 in the mountains. South of Interstate 80, a few hundredths to trace amounts will be possible in the Valley with between 0.10 and 0.20 in the upper foothills and mountains of the Sierra. This system will also bring light snowfall accumulations between 1 and 3 inches above 6000 feet, with lighter amounts possible down to 5000-5500 feet. Current guidance indicates most of the snowfall occurring during the afternoon and early evening hours, which may result in some mountain travel impacts during the Wednesday evening commute. Ensembles predominantly favor ridging settling in aloft behind this weak system, leading to near to slightly above-normal high temperatures and dry weather through Friday. A few solutions show the trough sliding further south once it moves over the Great Basin which would introduce gusty north to east winds through the Valley and over the mountains. && .EXTENDED DISCUSSION (Saturday THROUGH Tuesday)... Ensemble guidance remains largely in agreement on ridging aloft amplifying through the end of the week and into the weekend leading to dry weather and above-normal temperatures. Generally 30 to 50 percent probabilities of reaching 70 deg F throughout the Delta, Valley, and foothills, then increase to 50 to 70 percent probabilities for Monday and next Tuesday. While no strong signals for wind impacts are anticipated with this pattern shift, diurnally-driven north to east winds may be breezy at times. && .AVIATION... Areas of MVFR/IFR/LIFR conditions expected across portions of the east side of the Valley and adjacent foothills due to fog, mist, and/or low stratus between 12z-18z Tuesday. Otherwise, VFR conditions prevail next 24 hours. Surface winds generally less than 12 kts. Locally breezy southerly winds develop after 12z Wednesday. && .STO WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... None. && $$
