A trough of low pressure (shaded area that’s “U” shaped over the southwest) is moving to the east and spreading south and high pressure is moving in after it. A weak frontal system (out of the Gulf of Alaska) will be coming through tonight and Saturday and will raise our temperatures to more comfortable levels. As the low pressure moves out high pressure behind it will give us another brighter and warmer period, but the weekend won’t be perfect. The next storm system will be moving in late Sunday to Monday bringing with it more precipitation. Does this weather pattern sound familiar? At least most of the sunshine has been occurring over the weekend when a lot of people want to play or putter around outdoors.
