For the forecast, high pressure again for today with cooler temperatures at night and warm temps during the day, in a dry Southwest flow aloft. Friday is also looking like a nice fall day but we are likely to see some cloud development in the afternoon. Upper level trough pushes through on Saturday with some light precipitation and dropping freezing levels, brunt of the precip will fall during the night. Freezing level will drop to around 1800 meters. Sunday is looking unsettled as the low moves South, cloudy in the morning with nice weather returning by Sunday afternoon. Unsettled early next week with a Westerly flow aloft. Next low will likely affect us by Tuesday. Will post again on Monday with an update.

    Low is getting closer, some high cirrus cloud moving through the area.

    Low is moving down the coast but another mostly sunny day for us.

    Series of lows moving down the coast with breaks in between systems. Deeper low for Tuesday.

    Friday will likely see some cloud development.

     Saturday is looking moist at this time. Most of the precip coming Saturday evening.

    Low keeps moving south on Sunday.

    Sunny by Sunday afternoon, unsettled on Monday.

Have lost two of my advertisers this fall so far, if anyone has any company contacts that may have an interest in placing an advertisement on the blog please e mail me at wwflann@me.com. If I cannot find enough support to generate some revenue, 5 years of hard work and archived information may come to an end. Any ideas would be appreciated!!
