The summer Solstice will occur at 10:16 AM Tuesday June 21st. After the clouds and chance of precipitation over the weekend Summer weather will slide in.
________________
A high pressure ridge is building offshore and will migrate to the East through the Pacific Northwest. That will help warm us up so that we can begin Summer on a warmer note. A trough of low pressure will move out of the Gulf of Alaska and a cold front will move in Wednesday bringing clouds, temperatures a bit cooler and, yes, maybe even the slight chance of showers.
