DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 19-23)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are now under 24 hours from the official start of spring, with the occurrence of the vernal equinox at 5:01 a.m. Thursday. High pressure governs today’s weather, which will be pleasant by March standards. After a chilly morning, abundant sun will feel nice by noon and onward, as wind will be fairly light. But light wind and fair weather at this time of year often means onshore winds near the coast, and cooler conditions there. This will be true today. Clouds advance in from the ocean late-day and tonight due to the easterly air flow as higher clouds show up from west to east this evening and tonight ahead of our next trough and frontal system. This leads to a rather grey day for us to welcome spring with on Thursday, with a few patches of drizzle and areas of fog with increased presences of moist marine air. As the system from the west approaches, and a new low pressure area develops and heads into the region, a slug of rain will occur Thursday night into Friday morning. As the new low moves to our east, the rain can end as some mixed precipitation and snow for interior higher elevations and a few lingering very light showers of rain and\/or snow can take place during the afternoon as colder air moves in on a gusty north to northwest wind. The weekend will be ok in general. Saturday will be the warmer of the 2 days with a quick wind shift to southwest ahead of an approaching cold front. This front may produce a quick rain shower in the evening Saturday and maybe a brief snow shower overnight as a secondary trough passes. This will set up a fair but breezy and much cooler Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
