DAYS 1-5 (DECEMBER 8-12)
\nThe approach today will be a little bit old school as I’m currently not really trusting any computer models that much. Risky perhaps, but here goes my best shot at what I think will take place in the coming days. The next 3 will feature a west to northwest flow and a colder trend, with the coldest air of the season arriving later Friday into Saturday. The dominant Pacific jet stream will send an area of moisture this way during Sunday, bringing a chance of snow, favoring late day. How this system evolves is uncertain, but Monday will likely be an unsettled day with a risk of rain\/mix\/snow depending on location. There is plenty of time to work out these details.
\nTODAY: Partly sunny. Highs 38-45. Wind light variable early, then W increasing to 10-20 MPH and gusty.
\nTONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 24-30. Wind W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
\nFRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Highs 35-42. Wind W 15-25 MPH with higher gusts.
\nFRIDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 18-25. Wind NW 15-25 MPH with higher gusts. Wind chill below 10 at times.
\nSATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 27-34. Wind NW 15-25 MPH with higher gusts, diminishing in the afternoon.
\nSUNDAY: Increasing clouds. Chance of snow by late day. Lows 13-21. Highs 30-38.
\nMONDAY: Cloudy. Risk of snow\/mix\/rain. Lows 26-34. Highs 34-42.<\/p>\n
DAYS 6-10 (DECEMBER 13-17)
\nLow confidence on timing of systems. At this time it appears one Pacific jet stream system will depart early in the period, a second one will threaten snow\/mix about mid period, and another may approach by the very end of the period. Will refine this in future posts. A significant cold shot is possible around December 15-16.<\/p>\n
DAYS 11-15 (DECEMBER 18-22)
\nNo major changes to the overall pattern. Will work on the timing of systems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
